Saw the above game fair advertised while up in Scotland last week, has anyone ever been and can let me know if it's worth visiting please.
Cheers
 
If you're in the area, it's a decent way to spend a few hours. The usual craft and food stalls, some gun dog stuff, equestrian stuff, air rifles, clay pigeon shooting (on site) and quite a bit of fishing gear usually. A few bits and bobs for deer stalking and the usual falconry displays. Apparently the Land Rover Defenders will be putting on a show - no doubt supported by the AA or Green Flag!
If you can mix it with a day at Drumlanrig or a couple of days fishing on the Nith or stalking in the area it can make for a good few days. £15 per adult (there are some early bird deals).
I usually go every other year and have a decent day as it's not far down the road from here, more of a local show rather than the big country fairs, but if you get the weather it can be a nice place to catch up with folk. I'll probably be there one of the days, but will just pay on the gate.

Much appreciated cheers,

It’s ok clay pigeons are quite tricky usually otherwise the usual stuff.. I’m local and I go sometimes so I guess that about sums it up
