Countryman Fairs have confirmed that the layout this year is exactly the same as last year - which should make it easier for everyone!

From previous experience its been too good a place for serious shopping ;)  Does Andrea have any Beavers of Bolton yet? :005: :005:

 :005:  being the wrong side of the watershed, are further details restricted?  :lol2:

SteveB ....I was thinking more along the lines of training equipment for The Bear but not sure if I'm taking 'Will Power' with me, so personal shopping might just happen too    :blink:

 Would just like to say thank you. Andrea went on that site last night and has just ordered a Barbour Calgary jacket (how many jackets can one woman wear). Had the usual its my birthday in 3 weeks, it was in the clearance (a whole £30 off), only one left and it happens to be in my size (it must be a sign). One consolation was they did not have the gloves she wanted in her size. Why could it not of been the other way round (but dont fret Andrea has informed me that there are plenty of stalls for her to find a pair next week. Oh joy).

Oh! I know that site well......last year it was a 3/4 length tweed coat - they do have some very good bargains though ;)  glad to be of assistance to Andrea :D think I may keep a low profile on the day ph34r

It's nothing exciting I'm afraid....just a good old fashioned British Mill and Clothing manufacturer :D  I saw their coats at the show last year, came home and contacted them direct about sizes and length [I'm not very tall!] and they offered to make a coat for me, for no extra cost..... I call it my inheritance piece and my two cousins are still in-fighting over who gets it!!  [green tartan with pink and aqua stripes and a pink lining :005:]

I'm aiming to go on the Saturday as most of the other game fairs I'd planned to go to this year were cancelled so really I've saved a fortune so far :005: I just need to find someone to look after Tilly as she's not really up to walking around all day any more.

this just gets  better and better - would be lovely to meet you Nicola [and your dogs - hope you find a Tilly sitter for the day] Sarah - will PM you!

Not sure if this thread is really in the right place?  should it be in meet-up? or shopping ;)

I think samsalin are there with their dog creche, so any dogs not up to walking round all day can safely be left with Caz, Steve and their staff

Sounds like lots of COL's and pups will be at the show on Satuday!  way hey! :banana:

Can I suggest that we have a couple of meet times and points?  say 12.30 on the lawn area, outside the beer tent, by the house and 3pm by the scurries?  Unless anyone has a better idea for times/locations?

Hope to see you there,

Jx
Think these were the suggested locations/times.
