saveasteading Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 Yes, I've wanted for a while to go to one, out of curiosity. I'm vainly not expecting to learn much, but you never know. Sometimes , at such events, I amuse myself listening to the half truths and exaggerations of the sales pitches. And asking for guide prices is fun. I don't wind anyone up unless they deserve it. My main interest is observing the vibe and who is pitching at the potential self builder. So if anyone thinks they were mis-sold or has forgotten a vital name or information.... No promises though , especially if there is a wait. I'm also wondering just how big the interest is in these troubled times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was more thinking that my stand could be to help all those deluded self builders whom will delay / procrastinate over their build . I’ll bring lots of biscuits and comfy chairs . They can sit there and tell me how pathetic they are as on lookers clap and chant abuse . Edited February 18 by Pocster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saveasteading Posted February 25 Author Share Posted February 25 It was more interesting than I expected. Straight answers from most of the exhibitors. Plenty of hokum for the naive, but less than I had feared. Here is a novel idea. Fit the kitchen before pouring the screed against it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
