Since we get lovely snow, we need to have indoor shows!

Kev, as for getting spots close together, is not easy, they usually only do that for clubs etc . . .

Registering this early pretty much gets you in. If they are full I seriously doubt that they would keep your money. To be safe you can always call them.
