A wonderful historical record for those of us new to Southsea wondering what this show was all about, now that this proved to be the last Portsmouth and Southsea Show.
To be fair, if the trading standards took a look at the fur and feathers tent it would be closed down! All my sister's pets purchased from there died soonafer!!
Yes` I think the show could survive without the Fur and Feather tent. I would say that perhaps shows like this have had their day, but there are some really successful examples in The New Forest, The Midlands and The North. The latest I have heard is that the 2007 show will be much scaled-down if it happens at all, so maybe the Fur and Feather will disappear.
Thanks for your comment. I agree and I`m worried that nothing will happen as the organisers themselves have lost interest in the show. I still think there is a lot of potential to make the show exciting, but doubt that anything will change unless the entertainment contractors change. It would be a shame to lose the show after all this time.

Thankyou. Its a shame it ended. All that was needed was a few changes and some imagination to make the show a continued success.
