    Well if you put it like that, I reckon I could...that would be genuinely awesome
    If you must have sex with a frog, wear a condom. If you want the frog to have fun, rib it.

    Daft question probably but assuming vendors are bringing stock to sell. Anyone know what prices are like at a show.

    Live stage looks great.

    I had no idea about that fire until today!

    All my very best wishes to the whole team at New Bingley Hall. It's always a superb weekend in every way. That venue was very much part of the show itself.

    Hope you all have a great show in the new venue. 

    I'm snowed under with work at the moment, so this is going to be the first show in years that I'm not going to be at.

    Hopefully I'll be there for the next one. :)

    Looking forward to this year. From someone who has been the last 4 years it will be nice just even to see stuff layed out in a different layout. Also be the first proper post Covid one too if I am not mistaken.

    I’m looking forward to a different floor plan too. 

    Most of the exhibitors had booked on the Bingley plan so they haven’t had much choice, I just put them on the plan where I thought they should go. 

    It’ll be the first one back where it’s normal, last year’s was really stressful, I lost crew and Ginger Wildheart due to Covid with very little notice. 

    Most of all I’m looking forward to a huge car park  :-)

    Last year those going both days got a good discount on entry for the 2nd day.  Is this still the case (I don't see that option on the event's site)?
    Don't let your mind post toastee - like a lot of my friends did!

    Can I please be the first to complain about how long it took to scroll through the list of exhibitors (on the website)?
    :D

    Have you got more people signed up for this year??  Felt like a good few more than previous years.  And a good selection of smaller makers too.

    Who's on the forum stand @roland @digitalscream ; ?
    Having trouble posting images here?  This might help.

    I would like to sincerely apologise for that, it must be tough looking at all those exhibitors.

    Almost as big as the 2020 show (which is the biggest show I've run)

    15% bigger than 2022

    Lost a few, but gained a lot

    Ticket sales are up massively YOY

    I'm really happy with it

    I stuck at it, and got through them eventually.
    :D  

    And congrats on the ticket sales, must have been a little bit of extra hassle with the venue change!

    If I make it over, it'd be Sunday, probably early on, so happy to stand around whilst you go get coffees ...

    What's the stand content this year?

    Yeah, I had a serious wobble when Bingley went, then decided it was an opportunity to go again and make it even better
