whelan2

whelan2

Booked into the campervan area for Tuesday night. Never stayed before. Wouldn't mind seeing if there would be a bit of crack around at night...do the bars stay open?

Where do I look to find out what's there? I've a small interest in going one day but find it hard to get information online.

Aye going on the Tuesday. Few bits to look at.

RMAOK

Don't know if I'll be going yet - probably won't, it's a long way down for me.

The better half and myself go every year, I introduced her to it when we met and she looks forward to it as much as I do. It's a fair drive this time round so she booked accommodation and we're staying two nights. I've only ever been for the one day previously so hopefully be a more relaxed experience this year.

Maybe, depends on weather and host of other “stuff”

Mac Taylor

The plan is to go Wednesday as I missed Tullamore, youngest lad has been saving all year for this.:D

Never wrestle with pigs

I'll go the first day hopefully, if the strikes are over. Something tells me creed will want it done and dusted before then.

Base price

OH and I planned on going this year as it's been a few years since we were there. I don't know which day yet.

Dunedin

Not going this year

freedominacup

I wouldn't go across the road to it unless I was in the market for something and could see a lot of the options in one place. Other than that a waste of a day. The bit that always blows me away is paying in to a place where you are simply going to.be bombarded by advertising for the day. Even the social media sites don't charge to get in. That and the volunteers. God help them. Volunteering to add to Anna May's bottom line.

Reggie.

Would they be transferring the license to the beer tent?

I don’t know. All I know is that the pub is closed.

From looking at the traffic map. The fighting cocks is within the actual ploughing site boundary.
And the N80 outside is closed to traffic other than the ploughing match traffic.
So appears to be a npa and nra decision to close it.

The likelyhood is the licence is transferred, as Mayota suggests.
