Just got back late last night after cruising home through the Blackpool illuminations
Rounding off a great weekend.

I even had a shower at BF this year - first time I have ever had a shower at a vw show - bloody lovely it was! Better than my shower at home lol

As a Friday day visitor I was really dissapointed. Half the traders weren't set up till after lunch. Plenty of empty pitches too. No cars on display. No entertainment. Why charge a full 15 quid for the day if you're barely getting half the show?

I have to agree with you Aspro, Friday is the arrive and set up day. Full entry price does seem a bit rich when there are no displays or even a full 'For sale ' section. Don't let it put you off though, Busfest is probably the biggest and arguably one of the best shows in the UK ( light blue touch paper and retreat...)

Hummmmm not IMO, whilst i had a good time thought the actual show lacked entertainment, a little disappointed with the parts for sale as was expecting some rare/intriguing bits and bobs also thought there was a lack of communication of what was on and when
