Midland game fair Porr services for the trade

[Jimbo 30 06]

I didn't need to... the staff where onto them. The lady that was helping my daughter trying on a pair of wellies kept apologising, saying "sorry I'm just keeping my eye on this lot" The manager had already called security and when they showed up the group left sharpish without buying anything. They didn't manage to get away with anything on this occasion, one of the lads had tried on a jacket then put his own jacket over the top but he got rumbled.

Sorry if I offended caravan owners, but we're not allowed to say "pikey scum" apparently it's racist

You just did Si and well done onya all this POLITICALLY CORRECT rubbish is how these undesireables get away with what they do. It makes you wonder why we have the Police Force as it must be very frustrating for them to do all the work of catching these CRETTINS then the QPS gives them a slap on the hand and let them go without the required punishment. As for the Midland it was over priced to get in even though it was cheaper than two years ago it was poorly organised not as many stands as in previous years i could not find what i wanted and felt uneasey all day thinking a PIKEY DIPPER would nick my wallet, cards and checkbook. Went home at 1-00pm and will never go again.

having worked and visited the midland for about 8 years the problems have never changed -its always been pikeyfest -this year was the worst i can remember ,profits are thin on the ground and the five finger discount is very noticible.The phone signal always works when the v festival is on because they pay for extra phone masts -countryman fairs do not.The price is creeping up for trade and visiters --will think hard before i visit again .

Well chaps glad you all had the same issues. Today I completed my Countrymans fairs feed back on the Midland. Not good. Have spoken to a few other visitors all had the same issues. Surely somebody out there can give the organisers a suitable kick up the posterior. Not to difficult to get the mobile comms sorted. Also noticed the help yourself brigade, was amased on the S@B stand that the scopes were not chained down, asking to be lifted.

Its really sad that the MGF is going south side so quickly. I think it will be up to Bisley to buy reloading stuff in future.
