RMweb Gold The Fatadder Posted February 1, 2019 RMweb Gold Share Posted February 1, 2019 Unfortunately I have just received word that due to the snow the show has been cancelled, Wheal Imogen's debut will have to wait until the SWAG members day in Taunton come April Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium TimC Posted February 1, 2019 Author RMweb Premium Share Posted February 1, 2019 Due to the current weather and that, even if it stops snowing, the conditions under foot around the church and school are likely to remain treacherous well into Saturday, it has been decided to cancel the show. Thanks for the interest and hopefully we'll have better luck with the weather next year. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete the Elaner Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 I do not like to see shows forced to cancel. I know it is beyond anybody's control but somebody loses out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Gilbert Posted February 5, 2019 RMweb Gold Share Posted February 5, 2019 It was absolutely the right call - and good it was done early on Friday - I was exhibiting and although I cleared my drive etc on Friday morning (prior to the cancellation of course!) the drive and road (both sloping) were too icy on Saturday morning to even walk on safely...

RMweb Gold NHY 581 Posted February 5, 2019 RMweb Gold Share Posted February 5, 2019 No issues from me. Whilst I was disappointed that the show was cancelled the safety of all those involved was the priority and the organisers were quite within their rights and did the right thing. I hope to have the opportunity to exhibit at Yate in the future and will be happy to forgo any expenses to go towards offsetting any loses the club incurred this time around.
