Does anyone go to the Crick Boat Show?

I don't, but i hear it is considered pretty good

I must admit to have only been there once (year before last, but every day for the three days!), and as one would expect, a lot of NB's. However there are a lot of other stalls & odds and sods. Like I said we went there every day of the bank holiday & still did not see it all.
It cannot be that bad we are going again this year

we went last year for the first time, on the saturday, and a great day it was.

loads to see and keep you interested, the down part of the day was getting in, a nightmare, then getting out

was another. we stayed overnight at a premier inn and next day visited foxton locks, well worth a visit

except it rained all day, all in all a good weekend.

We had the same problem getting in and out, especially as there had been a fire at a factory nearby and the fire service was sucking water out of the canal, blocking the road in the process . This meant a 5 mile detour through the other country lanes I and all the other locals know so it still took an hour to join the back of the que! I'll just get there earlier this year and leave earlier (maybe ).

Ya boo sucks! what poo weather & guess who did not get to go to Crick , bitter disapointment especially as we had pre-paid tickets . Still the weekend was not a total wash-out I did get to go to Moulsford on the Thames to pick up some of the re-chromed parts for our Freeman, drop the remaining parts off and also collect a full set of window rubbers. This will be the next intallment to the rebuild - putting all those little window parts back together .
