piermaster 1,055 Report post Posted March 2, 2018 UPDATE: Due to the weather conditions I have cancelled my attendance at the above exhibition and before you Northerners say anything, I can drive in snow but not when there are two-foot drifts and high winds likely to white out the Fens tomorrow morning.

You just need to get your big coat out, Dave ;-) In all seriousness, don't blame you. Safety first! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
piermaster 1,055 Report post Posted March 3, 2018 Exactly Chris, I'm not risking my life to drive 125 miles round trip in these conditions for 30 pieces of silver, especially when the exhibition manager tells me 'it's clear here' and I would be struggling to get my car out of the driveway then along a narrow road and up a slope to hopefully meet my first stretch of gritted road. 9 out 13 shows were cancelled this weekend. 1 Chris reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bob Hughes 536 Report post Posted March 5, 2018 Rainhill MRC cancelled their show at the weekend, again it's clear here, but the organisers did recognise the fact that other parts of the country have had it a lot worse than what we got in the NW and a lot of their exhibitors and traders would have been unable to make it. 1 piermaster reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
piermaster 1,055 Report post Posted March 5, 2018 I agree Bob, it does hack me off when some exhibition managers display a yokel mentality in that their own community is the only one that exists, it's a typical East Anglian trait!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
