Intresting contrast of opinions here. I thought it was quite busy, unfortunatley mainly with families. So much so I might close the shop and go Monday next year. I realise there are some family businesses and not all parents can leave their children at home. BUT, there was one family of 6, all children were teens and everytime they you saw them they were crowded round the stands where you got free t-shirts. Not content with taking a sample or 2 for business reasons they all had to have more than 1 each :mad:Makes me sound like a real grumpy old git but for heavens sake it's a trade show for businesses not some family holiday resort.
I was impressed with the Permaboss machine, but at 45K I didn't have enough money on me :biggrin:
Seemed to be more clothes stands than usual, slightly dissapointing as most of the brands are the same on them.
The NEC itself was quiter because the Motorhome & Boat show thing was cancelled.
