Directions to the show:-
From M6 junction 7 take the A34 towards Birmingham.
After about 1 mile you will come to a large crossroads with traffic lights and the Scott Arms pub forward right. Go straight through these traffic lights.
After about 0.5 mile you will come to another crossroads with traffic lights and a Bingo hall (old cinema) forward right. Go straight through these lights.
Go down the dual carriageway for about half a mile pulling across to the right hand lane where you need to turn right at the traffic lights by some shops where the Crematorium is on your left. This is Rocky Lane.
If you come to a flyover before you turn onto Rocky Lane you have gone too far!
The church is on the left hand side of Rocky Lane on the corner of the 2nd left hand turning – which is Lavendon road. The Church has a small car park to its left and there is road side parking.
We don’t know the post code of the Church but no 66 Lavendon Road is B42 1QG – you may be able to find the church on the internet via this postcode as it is situated on the corner of Lavendon Road and Rocky Lane.
Please note, Hamster and other small livestock sales and hamster related items are allowed at this show. 10% of all sales proceeds to go to HAMSOC. All hamsters sold must be provided with a strong container to go home in, details of breed, birth date and background and the sellers name.
Prizes for hamster hamper raffle and ordinary raffle appreciated
And if this wasn't enough my other Club - The Northern Hamster Club (http://www.northernhamsterclub.com) are holding their Christmas Show the following day in Penistone near Sheffield.
