Sadly I live near Caulfield racecourse and it was easy to walk down and have a squiz.

Now that I have to walk to Caulfield Station (next to where it used to be) and take two trains I'll will only go if there is something specific I need to look at.

Was planning to go, but could only do Saturday.... then I realised that this is the 14th of Feb and that this idea might not go down too well....  Decided to go to Beechworth instead for a nice weekend away...

I'll probably go, i'm a little disappointed that it has left Caulfield as I thought it was a good venue. Not to mention it's now $15 parking! Wasn't it free at Caulfield? They flog the public transport thing but who wants to carry home an awning or an AGM battery etc on public transport???

That right there is downright offensive - don't they make enough on the gate + the amount they charge businesses per sq ft?
What happens when you queue up for 2 hours to move the 1klm to the gate and you refuse to pay and want to turn around...

I'll be going not sure what day,

Will be looking to upgrade/move sideways into a caravan (jayco swan style) A bit sick of the setup and packup time of the soft floor.  Or maybe a hard floor, front fold or something

Website says trains are only running Saturday and Sunday.


Melbourne Showgrounds has its own train station. This will only be operating on Saturday and Sunday only from Southern Cross station.

Not to mention how much you pay for bad food.
Went last year and spent about 1200.00 on a hot dog, bucket of chips and a coke

I was going to go tomorrow, but I seriously thinking of not.  I have to get in there from Ballan, and the three companies I want to check out are not exhibiting.
