Hi Tim I went yesterday. There were a hell of a lot of clothes stalls, fudge stalls, a barbers, a stall selling beauty products, I started to wonder if I was in the right place. Skippy, Darrel, Paul H, Patrick were keeping standards up with some great stuff on their stalls. Ben was there but not stalling.
Dave.
 
I would so love to go to this show. Reminds me of the big War & Peace shows that I went to a couple of times. We have nothing like this in Australia
 
I was there on Saturday. As you say, a lot of stalls that weren’t militaria related but still plenty to see.

Military Odyssey has gotten bigger since the demise of War & Peace, but it’s not in the same league. I doubt something W&P size is economically viable anymore and I recall the trader market getting smaller in it’s last couple of years.

Ah well. Happy memories.
 
Yes, since the UK left the EU, no foreign dealers, exhibitors, or hobbyists have been coming to the UK. It's a shame. I was at the last W&P show, and it was amazing. It's a shame it's no longer there.
