NAME: Jo Saunders
COMMENTS: A really good day out - I particularly enjoyed Area 51, they were worth the £7.50 entrance fee alone!!

NAME: Keith Fagan
COMMENTS: While I liked the overall show and as usual the staff at the show were very, very good; I felt the increased cost and the cost to park the car will have a negative impact on future events. Surely reduce prices inrease the number of visitors, who will spend more at the show. Encourage families to enjoy a really good familiy day out.

NAME: Elaine
COMMENTS: It was the first time we had been to this event after hearing past raves about it, but I must say it was almost impossible to find! We knew it was in Newchurch however we know by the amount of confused drivers following and passing us that we were not the only folk who were driving around for ages in search of a sign or direction to give us a hint of where to head! There were adverts for the event and diversion signs practically outside the grounds but no directional signs on the roads, I wonder how many passers by would have come along had they seen the signs or how many turned and went back home because they could not find it? It was a fab day out and worth the detours but maybe a thought for next year- some directional signs?

NAME: Sue Bryan
COMMENTS: I really enjoyed the 2006 Garlic Festival and am very pleased that it is to continue under new management. I would also like to congratulate the IOW Council on the excellent write up & pictures of the event.
