I would love to go to something like this show but I just cant be bothered to travel half way up the country. I wish they would do regional shows.

You could have made a weekend of it and stayed in nearby hotel. I’m sure Daz could have recommended some 5* ones.

Can't be bothered and would like a regional show?
With the size and success of your business I personally would have thought you of all people would appreciate the work Mark puts into these shows. It's central location is fair to most.
Stupid comment to post imo
Good luck with the show Mark

Actually I appreciate the work Mark has put in a great deal more than you do. I used to do events management and booking sales in a previous job and have worked many times on events such as these. So my comment isnt stupid at all, its just my opinion which I believe I am intitled to. I would like to go and I wish Mark very good luck.

Very good. I bow to your experience.
Maybe , just maybe with all your experience your opinion may have best been kept to yourself.
If we all can't be bothered or find it to far to make the effort for, he will stop organising them.

would have liked to go but saturdays i have other commitments, it should be on a sunday.
Never mind i will save some brass as no doubt would have bought something i dont need.

Well as it goes I have just changed my mind.
I have decided to go and have booked a hotel for the fri and sat night.
Tony I will be easy to spot as I will where one of our uniforms. You can now feel free to come say hi to me and tell me how stupid I am to my face, I look forward to meeting you.

No idea how you attract such negativity Lee ;D What you wanna do is post the opposite of what you think, then when everyone disagree's you'll know you where right all along !!! ;D ;D

Not as exiting as us waiting for you to say that to the wrong guy !!! ;D ;D ;D

I just didnt see a problem with saying it would be nice to have regional shows. Didnt agree that makes me stupid.

I agree it doesn't make you stupid. I'm not going but i'm not so sure Regional shows would be any good. Its a big set up for suppliers to set their stalls up, we are a limited market so National would be better for them in that sense they reach more. But also i'm not sure i'd wanna be rubbing shoulders directly with my competitors (Regional show). And in your case seeing how you have expanded, the only one at a Regional show in your area might just be you, on your own !!! ;D

Its a shame your not going.
Im quite looking forward to meeting people

No, just driving up. I’ve seen the pictures of previous night befores and I’m not sure they’re my thing.

Scroll to the bottom, but Warwickshire I believe.

Well that's a shame as your probably a nice guy in person. That's why it's a shame people can't just be nicer on here.

I think the opposite. I think if it looks like b******s i'll say its b******s. The keyboard is the only medium available to me. Not that i've said anyone said b******s, but you get my point. Thats why we have "reviews", its so other people know. Some people find that tough and threatening. Not me, i'm not arsed. Point is a lot of people are only ashamed of what they said and done when its prompted (via Keyboard) to a wider audience, Stick that in your pipe and smoke it ! ;D

every year i promise mark i go and once again the wife got different ideas,i am to watch her run the great north run :(

Have you got a stand Kev?

Yes look for the KLINDEX Machines. We are only taking a few that we think will interest the members attending but our main showroom is only down the road if anyone wants to see the whole range

Thanks for the offer but I'll pass. ;D
I'll say hello though.

I won't be going to this years show, but i went to last years show, and was very impressed with it, i specifically went
last year to see and speak to GrippaTank at their stand, then shortly after ordered a system, but there is a lot to see
there, well worth going, Mark Munroe i must say has put a lot of work into this show and done a great job.

Thanks for the offer.
I was considering it but I've got a hospital appointment on Saturday, at 5pm.
What kind of demonic hospital administrator makes an appointment for 5pm on a Saturday??

Had a need when we were in Scotland to use your Health system. I have to say I was very impressed we got an appointment for my wife and in less than 2 hours she had been seen by a doctor got a prescription and it had been dispensed (Free of Charge).
Down here it would have taken at least a day to get an emergency appointment then they would have produced a prescription then you would have to drive to the pharmacy to et it and pay at least £18. So don't knock it
-
I would like to thank everybody who is going to attend the show ,I tried my best so I really hope you all enjoy it
-
I've arrived and in the bar. Looks good so far
-
Can you pay on entry
-
I'll be travelling up early tomorrow with another local window cleaner.
Technically, he is my local competition, so I may just leave him at the services! ;D
-
What show?
-
I would love to go, but unfortunately I have an appointment with a sleep-in.
-
Can you pay on entry
just turn up on the day £ 5 admission kids free
-
Just had a look, nothing there for pv cleaning. Pity.
-
So Where's everyone hiding lol or which pub are people in

That's all well and good but if they'd made the appointment for say, 11am on Monday, I could have had a lie in.

Oh, I didn’t see you Nathan. I saw Lee in a Pryor’s t shirt but he was deep in conversation so didn’t say hello. Sought and found Kev Martin. He’s a little Asian guy with Don King hair. ;D He isn’t really but he’ll know what I meant.
I won an auction for an x line Guttervac system. I was in the market for one as we’re struggling with just the one. Got if for £575 + Vat. https://www.xline-systems.co.uk/en/xline-shop-2/gutter-vac-systems/xline-3500w-gutter-vac-carbon-poles-complete-package-256-detail
All in all enjoyable and worthwhile.

Plenty to see , would have liked a few freebies ;D

No worries, I was meaning to speak to Kevin to say hi as well but when I got there, I forgot to do so 🤔. Also meaning to speak to the chap selling vision as he's quite a helpful chap on the Facebook pages, though not interested in any vision.
Saw some nice signage on vans and got some ideas from them for when I upgrade the van. Bought some Hypo for a job on Tuesday after being reassured it was a fresh batch made in last two days. I normally buy through ebay but recently when I've used them they are so weak and possibly past their shelve date.

Last year was the first time I went but I did get there for when it opened and they were handing out bags with some freebies in. Didn't see any being handed out today, but I did get there later this time.
Haha not quite the freebies your referring too tho

Ahh Im gutted you didnt come and say hi...!!!! I was struggling a bit today as I got wasted in the hotel bar until 2am and had such a bad hangover today I nearly didnt go round the show!!! It was very good though and im glad I went. Maybe a few less drinks for me next time.
-

No, but you can pay next time if you haven’t got any cash.

I thought it was a good show! Well organised and thoroughly well attended.

I wasn't able to make it myself as I'm very busy with other stuff. I hope to make it to a show one of these years. I've been to a couple down the years.
The first was somewhere around Birmingham way about twelve years ago. I met a few of the people from this forum including Tosh, Dave from Cornwall, and Ian Giles of the world-famous extremely long posts. Squeaky didn't make it. Oh yes, and there was some local guy, whose name escapes me, who bore an uncanny resemblance to a young Jasper Carrot.
I also went to one at the Excel centre in London a few years back.
I like to go to shows as part of a few days off. When I went to Birmingham I was en route to the frozen North to visit relatives, so killed two with one so to speak.
