I used to help on a stall at a show in
Crawley, but that was in a sports centre, it was a good show with a nice mix of
traders and a decent 'door'. I don't know if it was Gerry's show in those days,
and I like Gerry . . . but, same day, down the A24 from Crawley and hang-a
right toward Dorking-Guildford or - further down - Winchester . . .

voucher?
Bar-b-que, live music, 20+ running railway
layouts, 80+ trade tables, toy displays, stalls, licensed bar/real ale, parking
&etc.
I haven't been for a shamefully long time, especially as it's only just
down the road, but it really is a fantastic day out. The layouts usually
include old tin-plate, OO-gauge Triang-Hornby
types, TT-gauge, triple-rail, Trebble-o
Trains, &etc.
There's often stuff going on outside in the yard and in the other
buildings, in past years there have been displays of Blue Box civil sets, Bayko,
Lego, Meccano - all sorts!
If you are at a loose-end on Saturday - head for Alresford - even the
scenery on the drive at that end is
lovely!
