Re: Yorkshire Game Fair
Yep, unfortunately we had the same problem.
Sat Nag said we were 7 minutes away......2 hours later we got parked....luckily we had an 80's double album to sing along to! Much to the amusement of the folk walking past with their dogs
Once in we had a great day and the weather was fantastic
My advice to folk going tomorrow. .........set off early to beat the rush

We also went yesterday.
Whole organisation, or lack of it was indeed a joke. They seemed to have completely forgotten to hire people to guide all the cars in! Once we finally arrived there wasn't even people to tell you where or how to park with cars abandoned all over in the fields with no logical order or nice rows etc.
We also felt there was a lack of stalls this time as well, where were they all?
Enjoyed watching Adrian Slaters dog show and the scurries but not enough to keep our interest for more than a few hours i'm afraid. Oh and we all almost got trampled on by the horses and hounds that suddenly charged out of nowhere on their way to the main arena for the hunt show without any warning, right where people were sat eating!
At least when we left mid Afternoon there were no queues.
Overall, disappointed.
