SECC Caravan & Motorhome show

Couldn't give my tickets away. Advertised them on 3 forums but no takers. Too late to post now.

I was lucky to get rid of my destinations show ticket then

So, was I the only guy who entered that competition and never got the tickets   Well done all you folk that won, I'm saving myself for one of their big prizes, like shampoo  

We always take our own water and food, not only is the stuff there expensive, it tend to lack a bit of quality 

Did not win last year but did the year before!
 In 2016 asked Border Motorhomes  Ayr if they had any for the show and their stock answer was 'We are keeping them for our purchases of new vans' but gave me a number to contact when we arrived at the show and if any were left a rep would come out with them. And we were lucky he had!

(left our water in the car in the £8 car park!)

Off for our annual walk around the Scottish show on Thursday (two for one voucher from the CAMC since we got no free tickets again  ). Don’t expect to see much in the way of innovation and don’t expect to be disappointed  

You will have to fit a 'Ribbon in your Hair' so anyone on here can recognize yous.
Hope the weather is kind though the forecast is non to promising!!
Any more news about the proposed A/S Peugeot van that is going to replace the Topaz?

Huh, what hair   I would have to "bluetack" a ribbon onto my head

Not too worried about the weather forecast, we're going on the train (on a discounted fare rate) there and back. Just got to remember to take the food and drink.

I remember the first time I got off a train in Glasgow and headed for a drink. The long thin room was split into three lengthways; behind bar, bar and in front of bar. In front of bar was covered in sawdust and I had to convince the barman I was 21 (18 at the time) to get a pint of heavy.

That was to stop the floor getting bloodstained

Hope, being English, you asked for a half  and got one, and not get 3 hauffs like we did when I brought a couple of friends   up to Stranraer in the mid 1960's!

Well, I didn't expect much but I certainly didn't expect that the only 4 AS coachbuilt motorhomes on show, 3 were the same ones that were on show last year

Never mind, a look around the Elddis and Swift stands has helped us both appreciate more what we've got

Ahh? But does it compare to the Wingamm coachbuilt VW at over £76,000
And what about the 'Rockin Vans' with their bright paint jobs?
