Lads, lets get some perspective here.
You can go on a Leo with a bunch of birds any day of the week, however, the boxing fayre is only once a year.....

I turned up once a couple of years ago, worth checking out if you've never been before.

Behave himself? What is it a church-crawl?

Was a great way to spend a couple of hours. There was a bar (although 3.50 for a bottle was abit steep), so you could grab a beer, wonder round and have a chat. I bought a few DVDs and a rather cool Ali v Foreman fabric print which is now in my office. My mate bought an original Ali v Brian London programme.
Met some nice people, including Jamie (let me know when Moses' website finally takes donations).

Sounds quite good that fair. I like posters and handbills advertising fights. I got one in France a few years ago...put it inside a book to keep flat but can't remember which book! Picked up a few handbills on ebay from time to time, so it sounded like Jamie's stall would have been up my street.
I picked up a couple of prints of old fight posters from a chap in Hay-on-Wye a few years ago.....there's a shop there called Lion Street Books (he's got a website too -
http://www.boxingstuff.com) which sells just boxing stuff...mainly books.
