Now thats where the old Crystal Palace venue was good. I remember in the long hall (whichever that was) there was a club stand who had a tele on it showing videos. Soon retuned by the stand hosts into the England/Ireland match. England won, so all in all it was a better day.

Nothing to the misery of watching Scotland going down to the Italians on the Palm Court telly, with the England supporters 'helping', still what a difference 24hrs makes  Then dinner in Carluccios  |

I guess you can always put a positive spin on things an talk about online ticket sales being up rather than attendance down |

Hi Maxi
It was also on the 505 stand one year until the organisers made us turn it off because we were blocking the aisle. We used to head into a bar sometimes round the back somewhere away from the main hall. |

Well if they were 500 down overall and the saturday was up by 3% it explains why sunday felt so dead. Sunday is normally a tad quieter, but not as quiet as this year.
There wasn't a lot of pre publicity I didn't think, maybe the recent financial losses at the RYA are forcing budget constraints. False economy I would have thought, this show should be a good earner for them.

It is supposed to be a Sailboat show. Its a bit irritating if your punters can't get to your stand because of a crowd of people watching what they could have stayed home and seen. |
