They are great places, Use to go with a friend, While i looked out for quirky model kits he was really into lorries die caast models and them buggers cost a fortune, He'd buy a few and these cost into the hundreds but looked really great

If i had to agree with you we would both be wrong
Deans Marine supplied the kit http://deansmarine.co.uk/shop/product_info.php/cPath/10_31/products_id/461
The plans read like a telephone book even has a full scale blueprint !

AS Lez has posted, Bulldog Fairs do four a year at Westpoint on Sundays, the next one is on 3rd Nov. I was at Newton Abbot Racecourse where Ray Heard Toy Fairs organise 5 0r 6 a year, again on Sundays, the next one being Dec 1st. He also organises 3 a year at the Matford Centre but these are on Saturdays and can clash with Footie, although they do tend wind down by around 2pm.

A good resource for information on-line is the UK Model Shops Directory which carries two Events Diary Listings, one covering Toy Fairs and Swapmeets, the other Model Railway Exhibitions.
