Billing 2007?
Well looks like its back on, this time run by LRM, www.billinglandrovershow.co.uk on the same dates, 20-22 July 2007, as the LRE show at Kelmarsh Hall. So its 2 shows on the same weekend.
So whos going where??

Speaking as a trader...... what an absolute joke.
Our phone has been ringing all day with other traders trying to work out what to do.
The spin that LRM seem to be putting on it is very.... interesting... that somehow they have "taken over" the running of the Billing show, is quite honestly ludicrous... the Billing management has changed, and the previous show organiser has moved on.. sounds more like a cheap attempt at jumping on yet another event (LR Fest, Gaydon, and others spring to mind)
Even more ridiculous when you consider that LRM are also involved in the Manby show... which is being held 2 weeks before the Billing weekend.
The traders I have spoken to are on the whole, pretty fed up of it all... the punters will suffer, the traders will suffer... the only winners will be the magazines.
I can only suggest that nobody books in to either show just yet.... there are a lot of rumblings in the 4x4 trading community at the moment... you might find yourself at a show with very little to see.

What a bloody stupid thing to do, as Muddyweb says, no one wins apart from the mags :evil:

Even more studpid when you consider that Kelmarsh and Billing are only 20 minutes apart from each other. No one is going to go to both shows and pay twice :x

Looks like I may do either Truckfest or Goodwood again, as this is just stupid...
Doubt I could go anyway, 20th is the girlfriends B-day...
