At what time does the queue for the non-members start to get busy?

My Mrs sister is coming along and she is a non-member, obv we want to wait for her to get in before we do (i understand non members have to wait 30 mins before they are let in) but what I want to try and do is be at the start or near the start of the non members queue.

Anyone?

I usually get there for 10:30am and the non members queue normally has at least 150 people in it and yes they uasually go in half an hour after the members.

Can't tell you for sure I'm afraid all I would say I think the people with tables star getting there about 8:30am so as long as you don't mind waiting I'd get there as early as possible.

Do they let you leave and come back say to get a box to put your purchases in so your not carrying multiple tubs around with you?

I think so it's at a new venue for the first time so don't know if the rules have changed cause of all the trouble they had in june with animal rights activists, but when it was at the dome you got a wrist band which allowed you to come and go without having to pay entry every time.

I'm not sure if I've understood it correctly, is it saying if I want to buy an animal I have to let them know in advance, even though I won't know till I get there? then if I buy an animal I have to pay someone to look after it if I don't want to go home straight away? sounds like a right con to me but what do I know :(

Let them know in advance IF you are picking up a preordered snake from someone who ain't got a table at the show
To stop car park trading

Your fine to go there see what you want and buy on the tables
It's just if someone's bring you a snake to donny
