Never been before. Is it any good?
Deb & I are planning on going on the Sat to catch the London Ride freestyle event at the end of the day.

Is this the Daily Mail one???
Went last year, some good deals on clothing if you weren't after the latest designs of top of the range. Otherwise the prices were very much what you'd pay in the shops. Some good deals on holidays if you looked around. Not sure i'll go again though. Seeing the freestyle stuff on the small slope was good!!!
Oh and if you search on the web you can get half price tickets from some of the other snow websites - i think www.theboarder.co.uk were certainly doing that offer???

Agree with above post. Also went last year - got some good 1/2price deals from S&R and a lot of good info from many others. Plenty of gadgets, accessories etc. some cheap, some not.
Worth a trip, especially if you've got some shopping to do.

Now this has got to be the place for U, or any other snowHeads, to wander around in a WWW.SNOWHEADS.COM t-shirt! A month to go, any chance of getting something done in time for the NEC and Olympia??

snowskisnow,
I didn't realise that there was a show at B'ham until after I started this thread.
Yep, we're going to go on the Sat - already got my 2 for 1 entry vouchers off the natives website.

One of the best places for bargins I've found is the Southern Ski Show, held at Calshot, just outside Southampton, on the first weekend in October this year, not a huge show but several companies seem to get rid of their last years stock there, a couple of years ago some friends of mine got a full set of ski clothes including trousers and jackets for under£200 each, all breathable stuff of good quality but the previous years colours so half price

Mr HH got a Killy jacket for 75% off at last year's Olympia show....it's a good place for bargains as long as you don't want this years latest fashion item! I bought my boots there too but paid shop price....got a £25 voucher with them though that I promptly spent on bits and pieces so that was a bit better than buying at the shop.

flying_squirrel,
Give us a shout if you are going - would be good to catch up for a beer afterwards . . . unless of course, you wander past the stand with a few beers for the crew!

OK, I'm flexible about when I go to the show, so just let me know when you've confirmed arrangements.

I'm going to be at Southampton show this weekend, all weekend! Come and say hi!
The London show is a different format (and venue - hall next door) this year, so we'll see if it works in the new five day run rather than the previous (and definately too long) ten.

Robbie - if you want, I can email you the proof sheet I did for the MK trip. It makes 16 of the small, coloured, stickers - each about 3x1".
You need an A4 single label sticky to print them on, and some scissors.
Dolphingirl - would you like the proof too ? Put some on the stand, give out to the punters ?
pm me with email if you do.

Grrr....I've now got to go to Birmingham when the London show is on, and I'll be in the south when everyone else is picking up bargains at the NEC.
Where else can I get a bargain jacket?
