John, I am around for this one. If you could put me down please.

I was lurking in the background, toying with coming to Rougham, but my car ends up like a mobile hot tub in the rain!

Thaks Gary, you're in In actual fact it didn't rain at Rougham at all and we even had blue skies and sun!

[Andrew H.]

Hell John. Please add me to the list.

Hell, OK then!

Hi John. Glad to hear you had a dry day at Roughham. Rained until about 11am in Ipswich so I don't know how you missed that.

Can you add me to the list for Lavenham, thanks.

Hi,
anyone know timimg/entry costs on the show as will possibly come to have look

[Simpo Two]

Hi Jane,
Remarkably the entry form doesn't have any times on it, but it's usually 10-10.30am. Entry is free if you're exhibiting a suitable car; I'm sure a Boxster will be OK. Do you want to be on the PH stand or just saunter along as Joe Public?

Yep, we'll just move up a bit I think that had better be it though.

Right, important bit coming up. Lavenham is space-critical (cricket pitch + 400 cars) so you need a pass to get in; you can't just turn up unannounced and expect to wing it. Luckily they use a system of e-mail passes cunningly suggested by me a few years ago So, I'll e-mail passes directly to all listed entrants soon. All you have to do is print it off, add your details and bring it with you on the day.

Timewise, gates open at 9.00am so you can arrive anytime between then and 11.00am. I'd suggest we aim for 10.00am. One important thing - whoever gets there first, could they please act as 'batman' and make sure that the PH cars are parked as neatly as possible with no space wasted. I'll take over when I get there. Marshaling at Lavenham is usually very good so hopefully they'll have heard of PH and point you in the general direction. Accept no compromises!

Hi All

I'm joining you all for the first time. Just need to know is there a start point or are we just turning up at Lavenham. I live in Dereham - is there anyone convoying from this neck of the woods?

Hi Neil,

Did you not get my e-mail sent this morning? All answers in that!

[WIJ933]

No John - don't know why??. Try resending it

[Simpo Two]

Done...

But to answer your question directly, no, every man for himself, aim for 10.00am
