I'm going at the weekend to the NEC.

I was going as a customer but one of the companies who is exhibiting asked for helpers on their stand so now I'm working there!

I'll still get time to look around, free entrance and get paid. Awesome!

I went to the one in Exeter last year - it was a bit too crowded for an introvert like me but you get to see loads of different things in one place, which is good. I made a list before i went and managed to get everything on it.

I went with a friend, bought my tickets on Groupon. Bought a few bits, was a lovely day out, such talented people about.

Did you see the man who was creating squirrels on canvas out of scrap materials? It was mesmerising.

No I didn't, damn - would have lived to have seen that
