robbo 802 Posted June 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2013 Just spent the day walking round and to be honest mate you are 100 percent right. 1st and last time for me. Cost £16.50 each to get in and then the robbing b*****ds want to charge you £3.50 for a programme to tell you where everything is. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

robbo 802 Posted June 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2013 Did i fcuk £4.50 for a 1/4 pounder £2.50 for a tray of chips. I would rather eat my own vomit than pay that price.Beer was normal prices though so at least i could drown my sorrows. Could have gone bassing on a boat today as well. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

robbo 802 Posted June 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2013 (edited) Yes mate i would imagine a pitch at one of these kind of things costs a lot of money. I wont be making the same mistake again mintstick, its fishing everytime for me. Edited June 7, 2013 by robbo 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
day worker 296 Posted June 7, 2013 Report Share Posted June 7, 2013 im sorry I didn't read your post sooner it really is a bloody rip off! given the choice bass fishing is by far the better option! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

dytkos 17,536 Posted June 8, 2013 Report Share Posted June 8, 2013 I went on Thursday, it's all about local knowledge, I was in there by 20 to 9am. LOL Free beer tasters and food tasters in the Cornish Farming tent LOL Too fecking hot for the animals though and if your prepared you can take a picnic and spend all day watching the displays etc at £16.50 its not the cheapest but when you think of it, its only the sameas 4 or 5 pints of beer. Cheers, D. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
baw 4,360 Posted June 8, 2013 Report Share Posted June 8, 2013 Scone works out about £800 for a covered pitch. Which is a lot of money to make before you make a profit. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
