Personally, it is my favourite show of the year.

Living just a short distance away obviously helps, but I have not always lived so close and still thought the same.

Very friendly, not too manic or overwhelming as Salute can be at times, and spread over a couple of floors.

Suits me.

I will pop over and say hello on the day.
You have a few items that I am after and I am curious as to what your new stuff may be.

First time trading for us too. Not far from me too and always seemed pretty good as a punter in the past.

I'll try and pop over and say hello!

Yes, Adam, it is.

Manic_Miner: I will send you a PM to let you know what I am after, just in case you sell out.

uti long smile: Will you be bringing some of everything. There are a couple of things I would like from your range too?

Practically my local show too - and I far prefer it to the bigger shows by and large.
SELWG has my vote though for friendliest with most wargaming related content. And if you fancy some fresh air and the weather's ok there's the park to eat sarnies in and the park cafe does decent hot food and a mug of tea...

I had a very successful first trip to 'Skirmish' last sunday which I can recommend too, particularly if you like to rummage. I managed to pick up some good bargains in GW LOTR figures etc. I saw Crooked Dice there too - Skirmish is a small but friendly show which I can recommend if you can get to SE London. I shall be going again
Warriors dreams, summer grasses, all that remains

Excellent show; good value for money and they made a very good effort last year to end the packing-up-and-leaving misery for traders. The only drawback is that it is situated deep in an unexplored region of England that is difficult to get to and even worse for breaking out of.  :D

Many thanks! Yep, we'll have everything currently in stock, but if there is something specific you'd like just drop me a PM and I'll arrange to put it aside.

I'll be there, well it's within walking distance so it'd be bad manners not to  lol

I'll be there, on the bring and buy, but sneaking off every now and again for a wander - and to grab some new minions :)

Hopefully I can make it again this year.

Been the last couple of years and I like the size of it and the fact its not as manic as some larger shows.
