With reference to the above .The show had a very good turn out it seems. I have not totted up my complete sales figure yet but it is looking like i have broken my record. for some reason i sold loads and loads of pellets to collectors and others, on saying that i had the biggest section on show.John M.even bought a few to take back south, Had a quick chat to Pete. (binners) on his rounds, dont know if he bought anything though. Air pistols were my biggest sales and miscellaneous items which are usually a bit slow sold very well. My few air rifles did not do well. I could have sold some but punters wanted to deal at to low prices and it was not a car boot sale: Overall excellent show.

Glad you had a good day Roly. It was a pleasure to chat, as always.

I'm delighted with the pellets too.

For anyone that has not visited Roly's stall, he usually has some real gems and has a habit of tempting collectors with some interesting vintage pellets at realistic prices too.

This time, there were books, targets, boxed Webleys, Walthers, Hyscores, a Haenel 28 as well as some lovely Webley rifles. There were even some very attractive armourers tools in their fitted wooden boxes.

It appears I totally missed this show, and I was only down the road in Swindon.

I was tempted to go but a few things deterred me this time.

Regards Roly.

Are you sure you do not mean the wife.

No wife, girlfriend thousands of miles away.
Hopefully a £144 battery will fix my car problem?

I visited the show for the first time on last Sunday. I was meeting up with a chap there and had other business in the area anyway, so didn’t go with any expectations for the show itself. Plus, I always like a look around the motorcycle museum.

There was a nice mixture of interesting stuff to see. I wouldn’t make the journey again especially but if you’re in the area anyway it’s worth a visit.

Cheers
