I hope you get plenty of visitors. It's on next week, seen nothing in the paper, nothing on the TV or on the radio. I had to google it to find the info.

Thanks Muzza01,

Good luck with your display.  :cheers:

We usually go but probably won't this year. We're getting ready for a trip away and I've still got too much work to do. I need every hour I can scrape up on the weekends at the moment.

propably go for a look but as Muzz said , it hasn't been advertised anywhere , one would assume for the rate that they are charging you for the site space , 10 days out you would have heard about it by now eh ?

Dont feel bad John.
Morag and I look forward to this show every year and didnt know it was on until I read it here.
I agree with rockman, pretty poor advertising for the amount of $$ the vendors are laying out.
But eh its Cairns...

Went there today. Not a bad display. Plenty of campers on show from all the brands as is caravans but not many boats.

A lot of led light bars on sale. Should have had a display there as they are not cheap and they are only 5 watt Cree leds.

The displays go around the whole show ground interior.

Yep, went there today also, pretty much all the same stuff as last year, though still good to see all the gear out on display, plenty of punters there too having a look, I'm hoping there will be a few sales for all the people with their goods on display..... I reckon the lay out around the circumference of the track is far better than it was last year having all of it jammed inside the track, much easier to walk around the track with everything too see on both sides.......
