I'm going for the first time tomorrow and not sure what to expect to be honest. Has anyone been? Will I be coming back with armfuls of fab food? Will I need a second mortgage for it all?

just got back from the food show at the nec and it was great, really enjoyed it. saw gordon ramsey's show which was really funny. personally, i wouldn't bother with the wine glass (which costs �5) as all the wine/beer/drinks places give you plastic cups anyway, and when you do hold out your wine glass they only give you the same amount, i thought the wine glasses were a rip off.
i bought some kitchen devils knives and a pair of scissors, a pair of very modern steel salad servers, and a turkey baster. ate loads of free samples of cheese, sausage, olives, chocolate.
there's lots of walking to do, so you may find it a bit tiring at 8 months pregnant, the usual queues for the ladies loos, and not many places to just sit and rest. i thoroughly enjoyed it and will probably go again next year (there's one in june 2009 too).
