I know this is a bit early but will this club be attending?
If so will we have a worthy stand?
Is there a separate forum area for shows and stands, cos if so i can\'t find it.
Or does anybody not want to show at Billing?
Should we start a poll to see if there are enough takers?

The Vauxhall \"Billing\" show is a VBOA event and any clubs attending need to be a member, so Corsa-B won\'t be having a stand...
...but there\'s nothing to stop us parking on one of the public meadows

There\'s loads of rules and stuff, which I don\'t really think we\'re geared up for at the moment.
For the sake of one show, I wouldn\'t bother tbh.
Billing as a venue will probably be scrapped in the near future as it really is a poo hole (you can smell it on a ripe day). Why anyone would want to holiday there is beyond me lol.
There\'s plenty of better locations, Overstone Park for example had a recent VW show there (Edition 38) and it was excellent. Far better than any Vauxhall show I\'d been to.

No amount of investment would stop the smell from the sewage treatment plant next door

As Joff says VBOA membership is nearly impossible to get, though its definately a good weekend (well for pi$$ ups), the cuisine they offer isnt the best in the world & you also need to watch out for the pikey camps outside the aquadrome if you dont park you car inside the aquadrome dont expect to see it there in the morning

Yes, I forgot Dan\'s another local
Food inside Billing is limited to a \"family\" restaurant which is frequented by Northampton\'s redneck community and of course the pikeys. Thefts this year were made even more obvious when a rare Nova Sport was stolen from the hotel by the site!
