Just sat here flicking through a few sites and just realised it is Busfest this weekend and have not seen it mentioned any where. There was a time when it was talked about for months on end and all preparations and convoys. Is this the sign of the times. Tim

It's in the calendar Tim and therefore the Events section. But let's face it - they blew it!

Yep I know it was in the events calendar but what I was saying, I also look at JK forum etc and not a mention of anyone going, and previous years it was talked about for weeks before, sad really used to be the show you did not want to miss. Tim

Well no doubt if they find numbers low, they'll have to rethink the event. A reboot is often a good thing.

Think they may be struggling, we were at a flea market there a couple of weeks ago and the car park attendant was going around all the VWs reminding them about it, trying to drum up business.

They do have a problem with ticket prices and only gave us 4 tickets even though we bought the stand space. Not even enough for our staff to get in and man it / set it up. We asked yesterday for more and they were very rude and told us to buy some. ! Lol
