Can anyone tell me how to get the best of the Rutland Water Birdfair next weekend?

I am drowning in a sea of stands I want to visit, but then I want to see Simon King's talk before Bird Brain of Britain on Saturday afternoon, and these two events take up most of the said afternoon!!!! Too many stands of interest, not enough time....

AAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can't attend on Friday, BTW..... should I stay overnight and go Sunday as well as Saturday? If so, whereabouts do I look for hotel accommodation given that Oakham will be booked solid, Stamford and Melton will be bursting at the seams... Peterborough? Leicester?

MY BRAIN HURTS!!!!!!!! Advice please?

Problem is, is thet none of them have railway stations or a bus route that's regular... and you definitely can't get to any of them on a direct bus service from Boston.

I cannot drive for health reasons so am dependent on public transport to get around.
