Is there anyone out there going to be travelling further than me? Are you going for the whole weekend gmaster. Can't wait for it myself either, and it's going to come round fast as work so hectic at the minute. But means more spending money.

Makefish

I'll probably put in an appearance on the Friday too, afterall it's only 30 minutes away so it would be rude not to



Going to move this to the South East Meets Section.

Saturday for me.

It was excellent last year. Seems Sunday is the day to go this year as thats when the F1 cars are out.
Saying that - it was the same situation last year, but they still came out for a play mid-afternoon on saturday last year.

A great day out
