It tends to be just the wrong time of year for me,  but eventually I will make it down for the show

Having gone through the website and reading up on the bring and buy, this year they are running it like a car boot sale, you hire a table for however long and try to hawk your goods, might be crazy in there. Did they do that last year, or is this a new thing?

Only managed a rushed hour around the show but I enjoyed what I saw. Ainsty had some cracking stuff including Andym's Nelson's column. I very nearly bought a load of stuff but remembered my 'paint what I've got' oath.

I spent £13 at Aintsy, if I had more room in my small childlike hands I would have bought more. I was well impressed by the Witchfinder General board set up, really wanted to get some questions asked about that, but the two guys seemed busy all the time and hungry and need of meds was kicking so, headed out after 2 hours, straight into the FOG!!

Parking was terrible this year.

There was plenty of spaces round the back in the overflow bit, if that's what it is anyway  ;D

I assumed it was ok to park there too!

The Witchfinder game did look interesting but there was almost too much going on.

Good to see lots of people there though.

I dont think it was an overflow, the website states that it was for the traders, I didnt get that far round anyhow cause of the way people were parking outside of bays I just went and parked on the path  lol
