Great!! I just joined, so am all excited!! When it says members only, does that really mean it...or could it be a member and a guest?

think me an pal are going to ignore the crowds this year too. Last year was a laugh but don't wiush to do that on a yearly basis. I often get left overs from other peole so end up with a good selection.

Hi Katynewbie,

Not sure about how strict they are on members only days, I suspect you will be OK, but the guest may have to pay the ticket price? Check on   events@hdra.org.uk
I think the members day is a bit less manic because they have plenty of stock so are not going to run out, it's the Sunday when people are losing out on choice.
Brian.

Yes it changed when they decided the Henry Doubleday Research Ass'n didn't trip off the tongue, The old www.hdra.org.uk will still link at the moment, but I would change to;

I can only presume that they thought HDRA was a little on the stuffy side, for what is in reality a very down to earth subject ...

Only a few days to go now, and I'll be setting up at Ryton. Hope to see a few A4A posters there.
