Is there any gadget or widget worthy of looking for, not going to look for anything other than stuff, unless they have something with an 8000kg payload that runs on cold tea and does 90mph.

The Ginsters pastie I had in my pocket for a half way round nibble.

Oh, and I was really impressed by the levelling system I saw being demonstrated and have started saving up the five grand it costs already.

We looked for and found one of those dual coffee holders that when fitted are located on/across an opened central glovebox on Peugeots/Fiat etc. So now we can both store our hot drinks safely when on the move - that was a result. I must admit that I was quite impressed with the show, its layout inside and the NEC is a brilliant central venue in the UK easy to access either by van, car, train or even plane ! Best venue in the UK for any event.

Some of the park homes were quite nice but pricey, apart from that didn't see much of interest at all, we already have the hydraulic jacks(y)

Did you find that at the Peggy Pegs/Mirrorguard stand? He's at most of the MH shows. Definitely one of my better buys (y)

We bought the mirrorguards :Dfitting them today as it's a nice sunny day after yesterday's chaos. We were tempted by the cup holders and I'm a bit regretful we didn't buy them...but we don't usually have hot drinks in the cab....we'll see how much we could have used them as time goes by:unsure:

Going in again tomorrow 'cos there must be something worth parting with some cash but it won't be another overpriced grotty toasted sandwich. :eek:

Thanks managed not to spend much but we are also now proud owners of a black cloth Morello bag. Decided they are too much to wash and polish so didn’t order.Will buy lottery ticket though. Just arrived at Britstop 701 near Sheffield and looking forward to a pint or two and some pup grub!

£10 ? If it was the cheese mill that does nuts, crackers , smarties ,chocolate, hard boiled eggs etc I paid £15 for my BOGOF. Was I had over ?

Well done on not spending much and getting a Morello bag, maybe we will see it being used if we catch up with you somewhere this winter.

So there we were walking round the show yesterday, thinking that we don't have anything to buy there, when all of a sudden out of nowhere came a slippery salesman who convinced me that I needed a new Avtex TV!
It was the last thing I was thinking of that day, but I left his stall over £300 lighter and feeling defiled.

That sounds like a good idea. We have a "muggy" on the floor in front of that glovebox. Having the cups a bit higher would be more convenient. Do you recall the stand number?

It was last year when we went and the stand was Mirrorguard and cost £40,l hope that you are successful this has been really useful.

That's not fair, I wanted one of those bags last week when I was at the MORELO factory but they had all been sent out to the NEC and Paris show. Can't complain as the bag was for my 6 "free" Morelo mugs so at least I got something.

Factory tour was very impressive, currently assembling a Morelo to take a Ferrari, seems very little is standard and no production run of certain models, everything being made was different.

I find them useless if the ground is soft enough to get them in then the slightest breeze pulls them out and as for the ground in Spain, no chance !
