Thanks Tony,
You just beat me to it, I was just posting on the TVRCC forum

It seems my & others' joint efforts to obtain a single day discount have been heard, so the cost is £18 each car for us on Sunday 3rd May 2015, instead of having to pay the full £30 two-day entry fee.

It's a bargain!!!

Be quick before they get full up!

Now then, to whom can I delegate the responsibility of looking after the weather on the day??

I haven't read all the thread but charities gain a lot by utilising the tax relief. Gadge did a great job by setting up Just Giving sites previously

I'm afraid my IT skills don't run to that level of skill

Perhaps someone can help Longers! Gadge!

[phillpot]

Just a thought............

I didn't make it to Stratford last year but when I booked the year before the guy said something about not wanting too many of the same model of anything, to give the show a good variety.

Was anything mentioned last year?

I've booked as an S3 but maybe worth being a little" poetic" with your description or perhaps more cars = more money and the organizers aren't too bothered now?

I have a twin room booked at the on-site hotel for the Saturday night. If anyone wants share and split the cost let me know. Then it's only one night of misery on a tent!

This year I registered as an S3 but in previous years it was a 290S. Both are true!

Blimey - I've been a bit absent from here recently (sorry!). By serendipity I dip back in and hear my name shouted!

Very happy to set up a Just Giving site - haven't had chance to go back through the thread yet but will do so. Watch this space " ".

Nice piece of delegation Dave ;-)

I've used http://uk.virginmoneygiving.com/giving/ previously because 100% of the money donated goes to the charity.

He didn't get where he was today but actually doing anything you know! Delegation... why put off until tomorrow what you can get someone else to do for you today

I have just fired off an email to my Sue Ryder contacts to see if they can send me a logo for use on the Giving page, in Sprint, etc. Let me know if you need anything else from me.

Try sleeping in the tent Joe, you'll find it more comfortable!

...just booked for an S3C...not sure what I have booked though, but it is on the Sunday...

...I bet the organisers will be very pleased to have the privilege of so many S's...after all they are representative of classic car motoring,since every other classic car is an S

[glenrobbo]

1. The organisers didn't baulk at my estimate of a dozen TVR S's on the day.
Other TVR models are welcome to apply, I'm sure. Even Dark Siders with Chimineas or whatever.

It’s pretty much essential to pair up as a driver and navigator team, because it's virtually impossible to follow the Tulip notes in the Road Book driving single-handedly. Don't ask me how I know this

So that's 24 of us, might be an idea to think about who you want to pair up with. It's lucky we're all good friends
The rest can relax at our lovely Stoneleigh base camp and get the beers nicely warmed up on the barbie for our triumphant return.

2. That Dave has always been a master of delegation, even in his complete absence.…
I shall leave it for all contenders to battle to get the best deal for our chosen charity. Who is best? There's only one way to find out.....…

3. Where was I?..... Ah, yes! Gadge! .
Did you produce the S model identification sheets for SCH at Thoresby?
If you did, please get in touch with me ( text or PM ) because I would like to utilise your talents for this year's SCH.

4. I'll think of something in a bit.
Just give me time.…...............

It's better than sleeping with a cross-poster!

Have put Monday 4th in the diary. Will be at Stoneleigh SCH S permitting!

Sorry guys not able to join you camping and other activities, love to but we're family camping Fri - Sun night

Split Screen Van Club AGM, Concours, Evening fun and then a convoy to Stanford Hall VW show on the Sunday morning.
Depart late that night.

Looking forward to SCH on the Monday & Spa though.

If you want to attend Donington or Stratford, don't forget to purchase your tickets from the relevant places.
I've counted 10 TVRs for Stratford so far through this topic: Have you all applied to them for your entry package? These will be sent out nearer the date.
Remember it is highly recommended to have a navigator for the run out.

Some of us will be staying at Stoneleigh on those days, probably sunbathing and/or chilling, but you are free to choose any or all options, you won't be all alone.

There are lots who haven't expressed their interest yet, what are you waiting for, this is going to be a great event!

Note that you don't have to have an S to join in. It's just so much more fun if you do. All are welcome.
