rhydddu009 Posted December 6, 2010 Share Posted December 6, 2010 does anyone know why the show is cancelled in 2011, seems such a shame as 2010 was such a success and 2011 will be big due to it being the year that the WHR opens through... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can only guess that it is a problem with the venue as Vaughan has informed me that 2012 is to be in a new venue ,yet to be announced, and on a new date. Phil T.
