I don't know whether it is cancelled or not but I live a couple of minutes away from the show ground and it is very wet - we've had torrential rain this afternoon/evening with more forecast for tomorrow.

Thanks for that info. Once again I feel sorry for all who have put so much effort into the organisation of this show, but feel sure (having seen the forecast for the next 36 hours) that they have done the right thing. Ah well, will give lorry a top to toe clean ready for Hickstead!

I would still say the show is on because it says so on the website and if it was cancelled the first place it would be on would be the BSPS Main website page and the BSPS Area 2B Website would you think

I too have just checked the website and unchanged since earlier in week. I am sure this will be updated soon. Cannot see how show could go ahead with ground so wet and forecast bleak!

Hi Janet - we have had to postpone the show on Sunday 22nd July - if you could let your members know it would be appreciated - we held off as long as we could but land not drying as quick as we had hoped and more rain forecast - if they could keep an eye on the web site we will be posted further details over the weekend - we are looking at rescheduling
Regards Christine Pearsall
