    It's well worth the journey Jimmy, if you are able to. I can't wait for the next one with just under 2 months to go.

    Kind regards,

    John

    Hi Trevor,

    With the sad demise of the Bisley fairs, we could easily have ended up with a huge gap in the collecting calendar. It's thanks to the huge efforts that Binners and Liz that we have such a successful fair behind us and further delights to look forward to. Agreed, we are incredibly fortunate as a result.

    Kind regards,

    John

    Distance as the crow flies

    Fraid the car is only good for short hops , does get through its Mot but for a Motorway cruise that far over east .
    As for the M4 , was up and down that too many times , the amount of serious car collisions I saw just gave me jitters

    Think you've said it all, The fair was superb and the effort's that had been put in to organise and run it were clearly visible, My two purchases are now in regular use, It's unlike me to wish away the summer but "CAN'T WAIT FOR OCTOBER" The biggest concern I have if this becomes a regular event is that I'm gonna need a bigger room to store my collection in.

    Thank you all

    For those kind words of support and encouragement

    Two of the biggest Airgun Collectors?Traders had 100 ft of table space alone , they are back in for the October 15th Fair, along with most of the private collectors that made the June event. The layout will have to vary a little to cater for many extra traders that sat on the fence last time along with Section 1&2 firearms big boys, now permitted

    The entrance fee has risen from £4 to £5 to help pay for my new yacht
