Fallow BuckCLA Game Fair Cancelled
Just got a call telling me the game fair has been cancelled.
The North yorkshire agricultural show has also been cancelled so a lot of traders that depend on these shows for their living, will struggle this year.
Rgds,
K
Any reason given ?
I guess it will be because of the weather.

shakariThat's the first time I've ever heard of that happening.... is it a first?
If you look at what the Grand Prix turned into the other weekend, it doesn't surprise me.
I'll go and look at the CLA Web site.

Fallow BuckWe have had a phenomenal amount of rain and the grounds would get destroyed by the traffic. It was also cancelled due to rain a few years back.
There have been several cancellations this season.

shakariDo the exhibitors get their money back or a freebie next time?
You'd think in the 21st century, they'd have a covered venue & hard surface parking for at least part of the show.
Mind you, I haven't been to a GF for over a decade so maybe they have!

Fallow BuckSteve GF is the same as always!!
I think it is time the CLA took a show space at the XL Centre or some such in a similar way to the SCI type shows.
I have been told we will get a refund.

Yup, the UK climate isn't best suited to an outdoor show of that size..... I certainly wish you luck on getting your money back..... I haven't had many dealings with CLA but from what little I have, I found them an arrogant and tight fisted bunch of bastards!
