Claymore's miles ahead.  But I would say that, wouldn't I.   Cheesy

With 33 traders coming  we're certainly better for shopping, I think some companies have decided to only come to one Scottish show this year. 

But I usually enjoy Falkirk more as I don't have to work.

From a purely sales-based perspective, our Claymore takings peaked in 2009 and have dropped by 20% for the past two years, whereas Falkirk's takings have increased every year, except for this year, which was around a 5% drop on 2011.  2011 was also the first year where we did better at Falkirk than Claymore.

So, it's going to be interesting to see how this year's Claymore works out, and whether it gains back ground on Falkirk for us.  I think you get a lot more numbers through the door than Carronade (600-ish I think), and obviously you have more traders as well.

Thought Claymore was a bit lack lustre last year, but as Hibs drawn away, I'll have nowt else to do.  Actually even if they were at home, Claymore would be a better bet  ;(

All the prices on the stand will have gone up by then, but with the cut-off for pre-orders being on the 28th July, any pre-orders will be at the current pricing.
