    In the big tesco the airwick sprays are £1.20 each and in the small tescos they are £1.26 each so for a extra 18p I don't have to drive to the big tesco to get the 3 airwick for my 2 cinema tickets:cool::j:j

    Its the parking that worries me or rather OH going off the deep end getting on and off the car parks. Also not keen on the crowds but we would go very early anyway - we really love doing the food shows

    we have been to the one at Tatton later in July a couple of times - its about the same sort of distance for us - again we have gone very early so we were going home as the worst of the crowds were arriving



    Parking shouldn't be a problem as the grounds are large and marshalled.
    Have you tried the smaller one in Stone, I know family who have been and enjoyed it, weather dependant of course.


    edit, not until the 30th September. hth

    Also I think the more affluent members of the elite should show a bit more understanding and kindness to those less well off who want to make a bit of money from selling glitchy stuff at the boot sale.

    Very hesitant to post this.
