« on: June 25, 2012, 12:36:35 PM »
Is anyone else planning on going to this? Its usually quite a good show

looks like a really good show with lots to see
fingers crossed for the weather.....its a couple of weeks away yet so you would like to think it would at least be dry 
hope you can make it debbiedaywalker as that means Cooper may get to meet his little half brother Dylan  :clapping:

thats great news  :banana:
looks like the weather is going to be kind to us, I've checked  ;)
we thought we could have a mini meet by the Countryside Arena around 12.30 ish and a spot of lunch (we are taking our own picnic) it would be great to see you there and to meet little Freya

Re: Kent Show - 15th July 2012 - car parks closed!!
« Reply #11 on: July 14, 2012, 04:51:25 PM »
If you are still planning to go tomorrow, PLEASE check first :shades:

due to the weather (it hasnt stopped raining here all day and I live at the top of Detling), the car park is a wash out and has been closed yesterday and today. they have put down about 400 tonnes of bark, but that hasn't helped much and cars are still sinking!

the show is apparently open to the public, but only those walking in or using public transport!

check out their own website for updates
 sorry guys!!

thanks for the update...but we went to the Tendering show today which turned out to be more like Glastonbury so old hands at it now  :005:
we are still planning to go as it is not supposed to rain overnight so hopefully should be ok and anyway we have already bought our tickets  >:D
still hope to see you there, if you're brave enough  ;) but understand if you decide to give it a miss

There is a restaurant with a car park less than half a mile up the road. that would be north on the A249 from Maidstone. Possibilities of parking there, but one a 'good' day it is usually full failry early
Also, there is White Horse Woods just opposite. it is £1.50 to park, but you would have to cross the A249 - not an easy task at all!! and quite dangerous!.

It finally stopped raining here about an hour ago, but there is still alot of surface and ground water around. Detling is like it's own little micro-climate!

the Kent show website now states the car park is limited tomorrow to members and pre-booked ticket holders only, so you may be ok! open at 8am, but closing at 4pm.

Take Wellies!!! and enjoy if you are going!
