They have also "recommended" all ticket holders try the local delicacy of a chicken parmo.

As an aside, it is 9.2 miles by road from the Blackburn venue :grin:

We are all laughing, but its possible that some people (lets call them "idiots") will book that hotel merely because the BDO have recommended it, and then arrive into Blackburn railway station to find its almost 10 miles away.

Maybe they deserve all they get.

Oh stop it, you know full well someone out there will book it merely because the BDO suggested it.

Lets hope that one person is Mad Jackie.

Let's face it most will spend more than the entrance fee on food and drinks.
I will be with my .Mrs so for me all prices are doubled. Won't go for a full day. Hanging around Blackburn in between sessions.

usual expensive beer prices in venue.but the beer is good quality.

I have shared it on real fanatics. Didn't want any unsuspecting fanatics booking in Preston.
