Loughborough AGS Show, Sat 5th March
« on: February 29, 2016, 07:41:04 PM »
Hi all, late notice (must not go on holiday so close to the show  ::)). Poster and flier detailing the FIFTEEN, YES FIFTEEN, Nurseries attending.....How can you resist!!!

Alas, as we no longer have access to the school kitchen there will be no bacon or sausage butties  :'( :'( :'(

Exhibitors will still be able to get toast early in the morning and the full range of cold goodies, tea and coffee will still be available.

Hope to see lots of you there.

Martin & Neil

Oh yes, one more thing for those who like to go out to lunch. The pub we used to use off and on (out the gate, turn left and go down the hill) is now a Co-op shop.

The nearest eatery is now the Harvester you pass coming into Loughborough from the M1, it's 0.7 miles from the school.

That's an impressive list of nurseries - both their number and quality!
