Not what it was, middle class shopping festival now
Royal Cheshire County Show的点评
点评:Not what it used to be. Every year the rural and agricultural part has been getting smaller and now it's just acres of people selling middle class junk like garden furniture and dryrobes. All the proper rural and countryside exhibitors have gone and none of the regulars like the country book seller are there any more. It's basically a shopping festival for townies trying to be posh. Food prices are mental, 6 quid for a sausage roll and 4 quid for a half pint seemed average. Ticket price is ridiculous too, £38 on the day. You could easy spend the entire day in the past but this year I left after 2 hours. I think this is my last year. Organisers really need to curate it a bit better and get it back to being a proper agricultural and countryside show. As others have said, the traffic management is a joke too. Added about an extra 40 minutes to the journey. It'll be a long time before I'm back.
翻译:现在和以前不一样了。每年农村和农业部分都在缩小,现在只是大片大片的人在卖中产阶级的垃圾,比如花园家具和干袍。所有正规的农村和乡村参展商都走了,像乡村书商这样的常客也不见了。这基本上是城里人想要变得高档的购物节。食品价格高得离谱,香肠卷 6 英镑,半品脱啤酒 4 英镑,这似乎是平均水平。门票价格也离谱,当天 38 英镑。过去你可以轻松地花上一整天,但今年我待了 2 个小时就离开了。我想这是我最后一年了。组织者真的需要更好地策划它,让它重新成为一个真正的农业和乡村展览。正如其他人所说,交通管理也是一个笑话。路程增加了大约 40 分钟。我得过很长时间才能回来。
