£18 each, plus £10 for the car park, plus fuel.

Missus got a new helmet, textile suit and some boots. Which was our mission.

I got some Cold Killer stuff.

But I wasn't that impressed with the show this year at all,

You'd be better off waiting for the BMF in May KJ

Same trade stands, probably more of them and you don't have to travel down to the smoke
At least Mrs MZ got some gear, i bet she'll be most grateful tonight, she might even wear her new boots to bed for you Did you get them for bargain prices?

We decided earlier that we wouldn't be going, we'd end up spending at least £100 by the time we'd got fuel, entry, food and that's before any impulse purchases! So we just went out for dinner instead....its no wonder we've never got any money!!

The weather was lovely here this afternoon so we went for an hours blast (well Jeff had a blast, i had more of a stroll) before our meal, fingers crossed its as lovely tomorrow, we may venture over to C&A nr Kings Lynn that Rob recommended.

Boots were a bargain, but they didn't have my size Then I went to try a pair of Sidi Couriers on, but there was a bit of a bun fight going on about prices with some other buyers, so I couldn't be bothered to hang around

Helmet was a Pink & white Shoei which was a good price, textiles were ok price too.

But it was quite busy and difficult to even get to sit on any of the bikes because everyone was trying to get on one

I couldn't get to sit on the Ducati 1100 multistrada, as it was up out of everyones reach

Kawak stand was packed, as was the Honda stand, as was the BMW stand. Glad to say I didn't bother with the Harley stand

No Suzuki stand

MCN goodie bags at £5 even the dolly birds selling them couldn't tempt me at that price

Oh well, at least you got what you went for, just a shame you couldn't get to choose your next bike aswell!!

I cant believe there was no suzuki stand, you'd think they would be at EVERY show, bonkers

Thanks for the feedback, at least now i wont have to strop all day tomorrow cos i feel like i've missed out on something special
