But you'll all be tucked up in bed ready for the 0630 rise for 0700 departure on the Sunday so that we can marshall the Show n Shine and Forum parking areas. Won't you you lovely lot?

Nope, that was not a typo - Scottish region departure for Gaydon on Sunday will by 0700hrs so that we all get in and set up together.

Make sure you have your tickets, passes and a full tank of fuel on Sunday morning.

I know you'll all be gutted to know that I may well not make it this year

I'm off to Brands Hatch on Friday for a Saturday meeting, which may well 'leak' into Sunday. Plans are still fluid (as they say) so you may well be still honoured by my presence, but TBH I doubt it.

(how will you cope without me?)

 
Cats know your every thought.

But don't care.

If Brum is busy guys ( it sometimes is on a Saturday), use the M6, M5, then M42 - M40.

If you use the variable speed limit part of the M42 (which you will if you come straight off the M6 onto it), watch your speed, I know of several people who have been done in the last fortnight for speeds as hideous as 62 mph (when it says 50).

Keep your eyes peeled on the M40 as well, you will be in the Warwickshire area, they will know the event is on, and their scamera mob are well known for motorway bridge monitoring.

Have a safe trip and enjoy the weekend.

You defo need these. When we are arriving early doors this will get us in early together as so many of you kindly volunteered to help with the marshalling.

Looks like we're going to be in a similar spot to last year so if anyone's got any 'interesting' suggestions for setting out the cars then drop me a line or collar me at the bar on Sat

Just a thought!
