As far as I can work out the reason is down to the fact the owners of the Pickering show ground has decided not to hold any more shows except the steam rally.
This is what I have heard BUT I could not swear to it

Be an opportunity for you to return the mallet Jim
junction 19 on the m6 in cheshire about 20 miles from manchester
Cheers for that jetski.
Much,much further for us to go now, oh well, we've planned for Peterborough in 2010 so at least we have that one to look forward to.

When you say County Duham, I have assumed, probably wrongly, that you may be somewhere near Durham. Distance from Durham to Peterborough Show 172 miles - distance from Durham to Cheshire Show 142 miles. I know it's not exactly Pickering but perhaps it's closer than you thought.
I made a similar assumption that the Welsh Show at Chepstow would be closer than Peterborough as I live in North Wales but no, because of the route to Chepstow, Peterborough is closer. I am lucky with the switch from Pickering to Cheshire, this is closer than any of them.

Yes you've got a point, but Pickering(previously York) is much closer, and being from Yorkshire i always liked the shows there.
Why all this argument over distances,you're motorhomers -unless you were thinking of going by pushbike!!!
Cheshire is North West England,although some Southern geographically dyslexic numptys refer to anywhere North of Watford as 'THE NORTH'. Any how whats the beef,is it over semantics or don't you think it should be in Cheshire?
The chosen site annually hosts probably the largest agricultural show in the Country and also has very good transport links,which is more than Pickering had.
When your working fulltime though and really busy its nice to have at least one show/event thats not far away. your view would be great if we were retired, nice leisurely drive down etc.
Its probably the southern brigade who have complained, hence where it is now.
Well I am dead chuffed York was a fair way for us but we stopped when it moved to Pickering. The southern ones are also too far for us this new location will be a short hop for us after work @2 hours so we will be booking and making the most of the show.
I suppose we just have to take it as it comes this will be the first show we have been to in years, so I for one thank the organisers
It will be the same for me Less of a hassle after work. why all this bias to the South anyway its hell for traffic. I have a friend in Dover and in the time it takes me to drive South from home (nr Chester) to the Dartford crossing,he is only just coming onto the M1. Look at the maps,I have driven further.
