1) I also think that at least some of the vehicles should have at least reduced entry.

2) It would be intresting to see a breakdown of the public versus exhibitor takings.

3) On the reenactor front it would seem a good idea to get them digging quad bike traps and maybe putting up latrines and field showers instead of runing round like loonies.

OK one last stab and I'm done, I'm painfully aware that it will drag on and I will not rain of Geoff's parade any more or create further waves of ennui that our chums from afar must be drowning in.

(I added the numbers for clarity)

1) Please read http://www.solentmvt.co.uk/beltring.htm this was addressed.

2) Please read http://www.solentmvt.co.uk/beltring.htm this was addressed too. I too would be interested, however, I have wholly insufficient years left to wait until well after Hell freezes over.
You know the charges, exhibitor, support, public entry, camping + bodies therein and single stall pitches, plug their claimed numbers in, hit the calculator.
Guess the concession fees, here's a clue for a fart-arse show:
Beer 1K, Food 1K, ice cream 250.
Consider sponsorship - all those logos on the paperwork
I have a quote here for 60 (sixty) bogs inc daily servicing + septic tanks (latter not needed for the subject venue) - 4K

When you come up with around 1 million quid tell me how that squares with charging the show-making MV exhibitors, because I'm buggered if I can.

3) Hey, steady on; I'll need to rush up to Oxford and attend the leading light HSO of the Oxford CMP LRDG for CPR with a suggestion like that. However, it could sound like an excellent wheeze to hike the exhibitor "facility fee" because of extra HSE entanglements.

Don't get me wrong, I have absolutely no problem at all whatsoever with you putting your hand in your pocket and handing over the readies; not my part of ship at all, never was and never will be.

That's enough of that.

Now, esteemed Ffoeg Allwinn-Bington you may tap me up for a beer or ten at the end of next May; I'm quite safe with the ten as we have arranged for some HSB from the renowned brewery you could fall into from the end of the site; apart from our proper pints as opposed to your namby-pamby 20% short measures, it seems to be almost 5% stuff also so I'm quite safe, however, it should keep you fuelled in the manner to which you are acustomed and commensurate with your revered position.

As a special favour I am leaning on Ballard heavily to allow you another jog around in his old Canadian DTB truck, but I shall want a full report on his Ford gearbox changing exploits duly marked on a 1 to 10 scale of the graunch factor. An additional note of any graunch-coincidental expletives, basic Anglo-Saxon or references to the correct parentage of the DTB F15 gearbox will win you bonus marks and a free pint (1.20094941337pt Canadian).
