Hello i hope your access for disabled drivers is better than last year, having driven quite far could not find a suitable parking space so went back home with these kind of events you are obbligated by law to have good access and near parking to your show, as the C L A gamefair do. apart from that it is a reasonable watchable event. i went to your first event an enjoyable day, but with more people you need to organize better.

As with all of our previous show we have ample disabled parking right next to the marquee which is set aside for this purpose, it gives easy access to the shop and the disabled wheelchair access toilet in the shop. If you ever have a problem in future please dont hesitate to tell ones of the car parking attendants in the yellow waistcoats and they will endevour to find you a parking place next to the show. We hope to see you this weekend!

that is absolute rubbish, last year you only had a few extra car blue badge parking spaces, and do you think i would have returned home if i could have found 1, at the time of arrival there was no one in attendance, and none blue badge owners taking spaces. since your shop has opened at reading over the years i must have spent quite a few £s, if i had complained last year by phone or mail would you have made an apology, yes but not in the true form. i recently sent you a mail reference a line purchase, but was no reply. today there is a thread on customer service re Fly Craft. why dont you read my reply.

I'm really looking forward to this! Saw the tents up on the facebook page. It's looking better each year. I'll be there Saturday and sunday and intending a few beers on saturday night. I'm the short south african fishaholic with the cold beer in his hand if anyone wants to catch up.

Hello i did go to the show as my good friend used his car, i did enjoy apart from getting my eye nearly hurt by a casting instructor, i was behind the ropes as per your setout, lucky the tip of flyline caught the fore head and not the eye. your instructor did not seem that worried and no real apology. i would advise a better layout next year. otherwise there could be a more serious injury. lucky i am understanding of this.
