Hi
Cannot believe they have got away with moving the only vaguely northern rally well south to Knutsford 155 miles for me or if you happen to live in the north ie Berwick 232 miles without any protest!
Used to really enjoy York and "put up" with a move to Pickering!
Anybody willing to start a campaign to get it moved north again. There is no way on earth I would go to Knutsford . Its easier to go to Newark or Peterborough!

It may not suit everyone but it's about time those of us in North Wales had a nearer venue for a change. I've travelled to Newark, Pickering, Peterborough and I'm going to Loughborough and Lincoln this year so this is a nice easy one for me. 'I'm allright Jack'
 You are alright jack

Yes you are alright Jack cos you have the Newbury and Malvern shows not too far away! What I object to is this being called Northern
when its nearer to the south coast than it is to the likes of Berwick and the existing York show was already a 2 hour journey south. I hope they dont expect anybody from the nroth east there!

Well i guess it's all relative.....

The nearest to me was the York show, Knutsford is about the same.

There are no motorhome shows in Scotland at all - this year's first one at Ingliston has been cancelled due to lack of interest from traders.

And we don't have a £29 return ferry to Europe within a couple of hours drive of home.

Still, Dusseldorf ain't too far!

I must admit I thought Malvern was closer afterall its only 104 miles but it takes 2hrs 39mins to get there!. As for Newbury thats only 205 miles, even Newark was only 130. Peterborough 164, Pickering 150, Lincoln 141 , so 155 ain't that much different.

As for not being North, it's not far from Manchester and I'm sure folk from there consider themselves Northerners. Just where does North begin?

the reason there are no shows in the impoverished north is that it's just too grim up here for all the softy, southern, shandy drinking fairies. Laughing

We are in the Glasgow/Edinburgh belt and so far we've made the trek down south for the Pickering, Newark and Shepton shows.

If you want to go to the shows/rallies you just gotta suck it up and head down that M6 or A1! Worth it, in my opinion.

But I know what you mean about what they term as 'The North' Rolling Eyes

I'm amazed they call it The Northern Motorhome Show. It's now in the Midlands. Considering Yorkshire/Lancashire is the middle of Britain, Northern England and Scotland get a raw deal.

Hi, well said, it will be a novelty for us to have a 'local' show to go to, instead of having to travel for hours.
