Went yesterday. I haven't been for a couple of years (they go by so quickly!!) and I took a lady - well, she's actually the mum of my friend and RI - who's around the same age as me and hadn't been before. As I have been loads of times and know the layout she was delighted to be given the full "tour" and I enjoyed seeing it through fresh eyes. We actually went as part of a group from the yard but we wanted to get there earlier so met up with them later, but we primarily did our own thang! We did a couple of demo's in the small arena but as I wasn't particularly interested in seeing anyone in the main arena she went off with the rest of the yard lot to watch the Geoff Billington one whilst I frequented the Your Horse subscriber lounge for a sit-down and a complementary cup of green tea!
As there isn't really anything I need I took £100 in cash, but still came home with half of it. Best bargains were a bright orange fleece and a padded gilet - on a two for £20 offer (my hi-viz is all orange!) and two sets of LeMieux mesh bandages that were in the sale for a mere £1 and pair! £4 for eight then
Nice day out as usual
