I'll be wearing Wild Camping for Motorhomes badge so stop for a chat if you are there and see me!

Mainly looking at accessories and < 6m long vans. Not doing the large stuff and the Caravans.

Mine cost me £12.95 apiece. Entered the special MMM promo code and got absolutely nothing off

If I get time at the end, I like looking at the obscenely big US RV's that you can fit a car inside and do about 8 miles to the gallon.

That's cos it's not a promo code, it's just so the show organisers can track their ticket sales and see which advertising is the most effective.

We were there all day Tuesday and today - didn't spot anyone with a Wildcamping badge, but then it was pretty busy...

Just got back. Had a busy day. Bought some solar roof vents and a corner sink from CAK, soft ground rescue strips from Fiamma, and sorted out a load of other stuff too, including main rooflights.

The reason I say it was a promo code was that the instructions in MMM said "make sure you enter this code to get the best price" but basically they were lying just to get their referral numbers up, so everyone thinks they are a great place to advertise, which they probably are, but even so...

A couple of years ago there were some money off vouchers in MMM, but it was only two or three quid. This year I'm glad we bought our tickets off the net and printed them out before so we got straight in. The queues to buy tickets at the venue were horrendous. I wouldn't like to go Friday or Saturday, it's going to be packed.

Yes. I thought it was busier than last year - the organisers are already quoting visitor numbers up 10% on last year's figures.
Only thing we bought was a new cartridge for our Nature Pure filter.

Was tempted by the little portable self-seeking satellite dish system from SatStil - very neat! Shame I didn't have a spare £999...
