Have tickets but not decided if we will go on Sat or Sun.

As we live local it's not expensive and found enough to see last year to make it worth it. I found it more focused for Caravan and Motorhome owners than the Feb show, sounds like less side stalls this year though.

Went yesterday. Save your money and fuel. The October show is nothing like the one in February. There is nothing really new. I only spent a couple of hours there. There are very few side stands.

Unless you are going to look at something specific I wouldn't bother.

Great really been lookng forward to it now not so sure.

I think they only let so many go at the £29 and then increase it in price. We were just lucky. It has some good reviews. Planning on eating a decent breakfast to see us through (well we may get something late afternoon!)

If you are paying for hotels etc, I really don't think the trip is worth it. This show is nothing like the one in February.

There are hundreds of motorhomes and very few caravans. Very few decent side stands.

Great really been lookng forward to it now not so sure.

We have been today and found it great if your looking at Caravans / Motorhomes etc. SO if you haven't already been then get yourself down there, I found some interesting special editions at good prices!

I assume you wont be going on Saturday??? Reading at Home!

Can't see how the February show can be better if your looking at Caravans?

Up the baggies.
