Rather than start a new thread now this one has been answered, can I ask what parking is like at the show venue as I have not so far seen any mention of it, unless I missed it?

It says 'Ample free parking' on the schedule. I don't know why I am looking though, as I live in Cornwall and work all day on a Saturday!

Sorry Joy but I have to disagree, the parking at the last show was not ample it was insufficient and (when I arrived mid-morning) there was no control. The only thing worse than the parking was the catering.

the catering should be better this time as they had another event organised for the same date as the last National so only had one catering outlet open, this yr it should be two (tu) .
