No worries my podgy friend, it does'nt rain on red cars!

[Kimbers]

I'd better be there then!!!

Bit early to tell but should be cool for it.....Though the East Anglian Convoy may leave early this time. We got stuck in the Bank Holiday traffic making it a 7 hour Journey last time wasn't it James?

[Tentenths]

Arse... we'll be away on holiday!!!

Still, at least I'll not have 7 hours of the M25/M4 to contend with, nor the Crapamere Travelodge.

[Kimbers]

Crap! I'm on me own again!!

[Tentenths]

I've a cunning plan involving a minor diversion on our way back from hols

Mum's the word and all that...

[esprit22]

Crap! I'm on me own again!!

Need'nt be mate! We dont mind taking you in!

[martynv]

Crap! I'm on me own again!!

As Chris says you're more than welcome to join us. I guess probably South Mimms as usual.

Martyn

PS: Chris you've not said where we are staying Saturday night !!!!!

Can recommend this place. About a 10 minute drive from the circuit.

Bar is very friendly and well stocked. Rooms are comfy and olde worlde, all named after old British motors, BUT there are only 10 or 12 rooms in total

Big car park.

The White Hart is a lovely place but the last time we stopped there the food was dire.

Hence our decision to move on to the Crown.

Hope it's improved.

Yes matey, there was a year when it was run by people who did'nt have a clue, they took 6 attempts to make me an Irish coffee but could'nt stop the cream from sinking! but the people now seem to have got it right again, but I guess it depends on how the chef if feeling on the night...

A few of us have already booked in so the more the merrier.

[Bazza 907]

I think that there was a change in Mgmt about 3 years ago.

Certainly last year the food was excellent

I seem to recall you drank the bar dry on Saturday night, which would explain why your memory is so hazy .

Martyn

PS: Teddy isn't coming he's had a better offer !!!!

Who else is heading down? We had a great time last year and this year I hope to get on the track myself (CL Membership and noise limits permitting!). It's my birthday too so I might bring cake

[Tentenths]

...noise limits permitting!

On the basis the marshals are all deaf and the db meter's completely shagged then?! :)

[bigsi]
