May be a bit easier to get in as the market is not open on the same day this year

Any one going tomorrow.? I'll be there in afternoon it was the only ticket available. But I think 4 hours will be enough. All sold out now apparently. Its me first time not quite sure what to expect. Busy by the sounds of it.

Going g to try and limit myself with what I spend. But will defo pick up a copy of Stuart Brookes CV Book. Will pop by the fishing Outlet store and probably buy something I.dont need hopefully for pennies. Will have a look at the new ATTs bite alarms. They do look good. Will definitely be avoiding the food stalls.

Might see some of you there? I'll be the one not wearing Realtree. Skinny jeans with out soaks and definitely no Turkey teeth... I'm scared..

I will be there around 9am I think...probably walking around with a couple mates. Ones 6' 8" and looks like a viking, the other a baby faced version of Neil Spooner.

I'm the decrepit grey haired skin head with the pot belly, a bait boat under one arm and a drone following overhead...

I remember that pair minding Madonna at last years MTV awards, the price of fame I guess.

Just got home. Got there at 8.30. Queue to get in the door was enormous, so grabbed a £7 dog burger and sat in the car till 9.30. Walked straight in but it was very busy. Crawled round and had a nose at stuff. Bought a few little bits. Got £2 off a 5k bag of pellet. Mate got 3 new Sonik rods for £90 each, usually £110 I think they said. 12 cans of gas for £35 or might have been £30. Got some tips off of Rob Burgess for the Aquarium lake in France as I'm out there in may. Came across as a really nice bloke and was more than happy to pass on any info to help us. Danny Fairbrass touched me on the shoulder and said 'scuse me mate'. It really was very busy by 11.30 and we had had enough of the sea of green and camo so we left. Drove round the car park for ages as we couldn't find the way out as people just seemed to park where they wanted so it was a case of driving through gaps in the end. Wasn't bad but I'm not sure I'll do another.
