Knitting & stitching is a travelling show and as well as London (March and October) there is Harrogate and Dublin.  The  Glasgow leg has been dropped.

Is Harrogate not within reach @Surest1tch?  Tea at Betty's after?

Actually it was Edinburgh they came to - twice. Then they cancelled  :( (mind you, it was about a quarter the size of Harrogate)

@Surest1tch I went to the Harrogate one a couple of years ago and it was well worth it.  Might have to have another trip this year 0_0 :fabric: :thread: :wool: :pin:

Have you tried the code without the space between TRADE and 11? The discount codes I saw for a festival of quilts this year were all single “words”.

@Tamnymore & @Ellabella I'm going to have to look into the Harrogate one. Any idea what the parking situation is like? Last time I was in Harrogate the parking was hopeless, I'd only gone to a runners shop for some trainers, gave up and came home without any.
I'm not a runner I'd broken a metatarsal and was advised by a physio to get some proper supportive trainers.

Sorry @Surest1tch  I've only ever gone by train.

I think I have missed the ticket offers - none on Groupon, the London ticket club or LittleBird from which I have bought heavily discounted tickets in the past.

@StitchinTime: the code has definitely expired and the site says so in no uncertain terms.

@Surestitch. I went to the Harrogate show last year and really enjoyed it. I just looked for coach trips online as that was the most economical option for me (first coach trip since I was at school a long time ago).  Might be worth investigating.

If enough of you wanted to go, we could probably get a group rate like I do for FOQ.

Yes it is exactly the same (and same company) as FOQ ... Adult price would be £11, Child £6.50

If anyone is interested let me know as soon as possible as there is only a month to go.
