This was only our 2nd show, the first being NEC last Year when we ordered our first MH.
We turned up at 8am this morning (Sunday) it was great to see many Motorhomes all camped up, 2800 I was told by the chap on the gate.
The show itself was OK, slightly smaller than I expected but good day out, I think the outdoor ones are better, just in the Day parking area another couple of hundred turned up around us.
Its great to see so many shapes and sizes and modifications.
Those who attended I hope you all got back hom safe, there was a trail of MH's leaving when we left at 3:30pm
The campers on the rally site also had a good time - we left this morning & returned home after a visit to son & family in Didcot.
Many thanks to Jacquie for the organisation!
The rally fields were full of vans - a wonderful sight. Ken (Gaspode) said that there was a travel news warning this morning to watch out for mororhomes on the A34!

We didn't see you there, why didn't you come and say hello? As you say, not as large a show as the majors but to our mind one of the best. We had a superb turnout on the rally field and I think I can say with confidence that everyone who attended enjoyed themselves. Everyone wanted to know when the next one was anyway. If you haven't been to one of the show rallies yet, you don't know what you're missing.
We just arrived home and haven't had time to sort the photos yet but here's one of the van lineup on our section just to whet your appetite.
Once again, thanks to Jacquie & John for organising a great weekend (even if we did have to fix their gennie for our supper).

We're just back too, our first motorhome show and it has now been pencilled in the diary for next year.
Great to meet members I feel I've known for years, and a very big thank you to Jacque & John and all who helped with the organisation. The MHF Site was perfectly placed, close to all the amenities, and I am well impressed with the banners/flags etc, very professional.
I must say that my arms feel 6" longer for all the trips back to the van with the carriers.
Superb value for money with quality entertainment every night in the marquee, and those members who prefered to socialise in the club gazeebo also had a great time.
Thanks again everyone for making us welcome.

We visited yesterday (Saturday) the show looked busier than last year, too much choice in my opinion if I was looking to buy.
Visited the MHF’S members that attended, met members we have not met before and some we had met, still the friendly and welcoming atmosphere as always, thanks for the hospitality, all of you.
I should think there would be traffic problems, as the camping field seemed full, as did the visitors car park, hope you all have a safe trip home.
ps. Hugh, did you not go and visit the MHF camp, if you didn't, you missed some very friendly and welcoming members.

Thanks Jacquie and John for all your hard work - I think our patch/pitch looked very professional indeed. It was amusing to watch people trying to read the names on the MHF pennants!
Thanks Mike for putting on the photo - I think our machine looks great on the front line. We did not even notice the hum of the generators after a short while - lulled to sleep by soul music on Friday and laughter on Saturday. Can't be bad.
Hope to meet up with more of the crew at Stratford. How time flies when you are having fun.....
Likewise from Liz and myself. A great big thankyou to Jacquie and John for a most welcoming arrival and Jacquie ensured everyone was introduced to each other. How she remembers all the names is beyond me. Lovely to meet up with folks I have only read. Very friendly and socialable bunch and Newbury got a big thumbs up on this first show I have stayed over at.
