I'm booked in but will be with my Wolf + radios in the first field.

But I wonder what day does it first kick off? On Wednesday would there be many exhibitors that early assuming we can come that early?

Last year was my first time & it was rather grim travelling on Friday, as it took 8 hours. So anxious not to repeat that experience.

There wont be too much resistance if you turn up Wednesday Clive. We have arrived earlier with permission, last year people started to arrive on mass Wed/ Thur anyway.

Ok thanks Rob, I must say the organisers were very helpful in fitting in with my requirements.

I hope nobody used up all their green ink printing off their entry pass!

I printed mine as an image shrunk to a few cm : )
