It's called Staffordshire County Showground - http://www.staffscountyshowground.co.uk/welcom.htm

Bingley Hall is just the name of the main building on the grounds and is where the actual show is held.

Stafford is also a good night out - i recommend the 'pie and ale house' for some food, then the Nelson later on - however be warned some of the drinks they serve in there will impair vision!

about 7am!

I've pre-ordered tickets so that we can go in the slightly shorter pre-paid queue...

you'll be fine at that time. can't remeber when we got there last year, but the preorder queue wasn't bad at all and moved quickly

Just think if 50% people buy pre ordered tickets, the buy on the door que will be shorter, and the pre ordered que will be longer, but both ques will be the same length.

Its a bit like EasyJet's priority service, where you can get on the plain first and get the seats you want. But if everyone bought the priority tickets, what's the point? *hehe!*

No queing for me hopefully but I'll probably end up draining the bloody tank again like I did last year. Had to wash all the shit off last year as well. Still, me nd the van will be cosy inside !

Waste of time IMO. Surely, a full tank of fuel is less of a risk than one with lots of fumes in ?

Minivanless, but reluctantly happy living with the decision. There'll be another one day.

draining the tank is just daft!

Like you say a empty fumy tank is a bomb (just needs a fuse). A full tank isn't

If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of.

I quite enjoyed the queue last year, there was a big group of us waiting together and there is nothing like seeing someone who's been bitching about you dressed up like a fat marshmallow *Rofl!*
