ancaster swap meets

Hi all,
Anybody out Hamilton way recommend the swap meets out at the Ancaster fairgrounds. I also see that there is one next Sunday and then again on the 20th of April. Which one is best or are they both good. Any insight would be appreciated.
Thanks and enjoy the weather today.
Scott

Anybody have any details?

Oh Yeah Ancaster is great! The April 20th date is there huge one, but weather pending the one next week on the 30th should be good too. I go every year, and come out of there with something I needed.

Bill and a few of us are going up the 30th, next Sunday weather pending, plus my Stag & Doe is the night before, so.....

But I will be going for sure to the April 20th also. We have a thread just for car shows and such, on our board www.sogm.ca in the Announcement forum. Helps keep everyone up to date, and if someone knows of a show that isn't posted, by all means post it up if you like.

OK! So...I will have to talk with Bill as to what time we are going. I know he wants to go early, cause he has plans back here in town for the afternoon. I usually chose to go early too. I wil find out more later. Is early good for everyone else??

Hey everyone. I have come to the conclusion that me being able to go to the show for 9:00am is not probable. Between the beer, my age, and not getting home till around 3:00am. It is not possible for me to go to the show so early. I am still going to the show, but not till more around 12:00 noon. If any of you are still around come noon I will keep my eyes open for you. But being that my Satg & Doe is the night before, I should be a few sheets past the wind. Hope to see some of you , but who knows?

Sorry & Thanks,
Keiran
