Lot of people there today though,struggled to get around the place, pricewise it's still cheaper by far than Goodwood !

[cam.in.head]

was going to go mainly for the autojumble but no way id pay £35 per person plus getting there and lunch too. that could end up being a £200 day out !

Like wise Henry. Always good to put a face to a name

As for the autojumble, all prices were very high as with Brum council going skint, they had to sell the NEC off to a private equity firm. They are only all about profit so, up with the prices.
I have never seen so many toy and model stalls in the jumble before. 100% increase of them from previous years. £3.50 for a paper cup with tea in it, coffee at £4 a pop for normal stuff. Very expensives day out now

All these type of events are taking the piss with their prices, we went to just a local craft fair a coffee was £6 and if you wanted a touch of Baileys in it was a tenner !  Sausage sandwich £7.50 total madness.
