It seems that attendance has dropped ............. I've heard friends complaining about the cost of the tickets. The move to Birmingham from London has also seemingly not been as popular. And exhibitors were being charged high fees to participate.

GR has not taken part in the show for the last 2 years, all resources were fed into FMP.

Went to first 3 in London, noticed some of local FHS stands were missing at last one, and somehow didn't have same feel to it...

Met up with other GR folks, for 'lunch meets', that was nice, and got a free GR pencil thrown in too, lol.

Something else gone then...

Moving it to Birmingham made it too expensive to visit as it would mean at least one overnight stay in a motel as well as travel expenses etc

I did go to the London ones but couldn't afford it when they moved

Guess it was the same problem for folks down travelling to London though
