I am still hovering .... but the thought of a 3 hour drive just to get there is not appealing and then fixing somewhere to stay. If only it was a little nearer! Bob

You don't need somewhere to stay, it's free camping there?

Although I'd like to go on friday or saturday I can see it being just the sunday.
But I will be there for the 700 line up.
Children are very welcome and camping is free and if you have a caravan you will need to ask as room for setting them up will be limited,especially any hook ups.If there are any?
I wouldn't miss meeting mrmeringo Prufrock Laney and others.

Regards Brian.

I saw two today, a saloon and estate. Both cars poorly maintained rusty roof rack on one and bird s*** all over the other. 740s dont seem to have any enthusiast following and I expect the 940s will end up the same. No takers for my 740 Turbo Estate at £350 !

I am an 'old git' .... I guess I could take my tent and inflatable lilo ... on the other hand, I could take the gazebo (I was going to say something else there but thought better of it... something to do with it when it was up!), open the tailgate and I would have a ready made palace .... !! I would still need Laney's chintz curtains though! Maybe I am warming to the idea .. slowly. Bob.
