Like Sue, I won't be going - it is very far north for a midland show hehe

Almost in the Midlands Huh? ROFL only joking - just map wise I am Midlands and never think of myself as a Northerner (Northerners live in Newcastle).

It will seem strange for us - it is our normal journey of about 2-2.30 hours, but we will be travelling down instead of up....hope the car doesn't get scared! :wink:

sorry we wont see you both there though - it is a shame, as I can only get to a few Midland shows, and love seeing my Midland friends who of course, dont mind that I am a Northern member!! :lol:

Bunsey

yeah, this one is across and ever so slightly south for me. Most Midlands shows are in the very South of the Midlands. I guess someone just happens to live in Willington! Fine by me though, it's one of my closest shows :D

Mine won't take me to a show over an hour and a half away unless its a craft/country fair and there's something for him to do...I think we need new chauffeurs!

Good Lord no!! I've done the changing partners thing once and I'm never going through all that again! :shock: I'm afraid I will have to stick with this chauffeur. :lol:

It's only half an hour away for me my closest show by far apart from Kingswinford :)

Exactly the same as me :D

I cant believe this show is so far away from so many people!

This is ony an hours drive for me, and as i live in Kingswinford, lol, that show is literally a 2 minute drive!! :D

Its a bit too far for me....and my Dad is visiting that week so he'll probably still be with me. Given he'll have driven down from Lancashire, I probably won't be able to convince him that driving to Derbyshire and back from London for a hamster show is a great way to spend his time while he's staying with me. :wink:
