Re: 5-Doors at Ford Fair 09
I'd never volunteer to help either, leave it to the people who have done it consecutively for the past few years I think.... it would be interesting to see what goes on to arrange it but I wouldnt wana take it on.
Simples!

I would volunteer to help organisation, but I have too hectic a schedule to be of any useful help. I am more than happy, on the day, etc, to set up gazebos or get people parked up etc.
Organising a show is a huge amount of work - I'm sorry to bring this up, but you haven't been here too long, and trying to organise a show without actually being at a few first is a damn hard task. I'm sure the "regular" organisers will continue this year.

Re: 5-Doors at Ford Fair 09
Organising shows is a lot of work. However the task of arranging the stand itself pales in comparison to the task of getting people to understand that there is a payment deadline and if you haven't paid by then, then you're not going.
Seriously, it's not like the shows leap out of the bushes, "OMG, Ford Fair's running this year!? Since when!?!?"

Re: 5-Doors at Ford Fair 09
I am more than happy to help set stuff up when i am at a show too, just don't fancy sorting the stuff out before the show, as i would be of no use due to me doing shift work at random times, and me not knowing what i am doing half the time anyway.

Yeah, this planning is slightly premature In fact, you could organise turning up at the same time the day before... lol

Re: 5-Doors at Ford Fair 09
Why have a 5-door though if you're just going to 'disguise' the back doors If you see it at a show, put the child-lock on, would love to see how they open then

Re: 5-Doors at Ford Fair 09
Rather harsh imo. There's always something someone can do to help out even if it's just following instructions.M1K3Y_B :No offense mate, but it would be a bit pointless helping out as you have no idea how it works nor have you done a show before

Re: 5-Doors at Ford Fair 09
If he wants to help i am not stopping him, its just how i see it in my opinion, how can you help at something you know nothing about?
Its like you telling me how to do my Job, when you have no idea what i do, or seen me work

If he were to go up to the organisers and ask for something to do to help there would always be a job there.

Re: 5-Doors at Ford Fair 09
I am not talking about being at the show, i am talking about the organising before the show. Tickets and stuff like that
I for one am more than happy to help when at the show
