I'm going.... only for the Sat though. The Mrs is going in 60's mini-dress and I am going in 1940's blue RAF pilot outfit. Lots of battle of Britain stuff there I hope!

Its not very matching, but the Mrs went 50's last year and said she would prefer to do 60's this year, as it suits her better. 50's suits the buxom lady better apparently! I don't care as she is wearing a v short 60's dress now instead! smile

I'm in blue (tweed like material) RAF gear as I was bored of going half baked with Chino's blazer old school check shirt + cravat.. Also Spitalfields market right next to my work has a great vintage military stall so I got Jacket, trousers and cap for £45! Bargain. Every Thursday BTW.

Edit: The Mrs is bringing 2 of her mates along now, so its just me and 3 girls. They might be doing 60's garb too so in my minds eye I have this :

I like the idea of a signal any ideas?

I shall be pretty easy to spot though white overalls with "BUY 1" written on well one of four of us anyway. Not exactly as good as some of the costumes you guys are wearing but they serve a purpose.

Are many of you guys that are there for the weekend camping or staying at B&Bs or hotels?

No as i only live 6 miles away i will be commuting in each day, best to get there early as it tends to be a little quieter for all of about half an hour!

Racing there this year (After a 5 year break), and can't wait.

Car no. 5, Fordwater Trophy.

Only problem is, being the first race on the Sunday morning, I can't enjoy myself at the Revival party the night before (although my other half can, and will!).rolleyes

Hopefully will see some fellow PH'ers there...!

362 days of waiting are almost at an end - really excited. All 3 days for me although not had chance to dress up as I've been at race meetings for 11 of the last 12 weekends so shopping has been rather precluded. Hope you all have an awesome weekend.

Oh yes. All 3 days for only the second time (ususally Friday plus 1 of sat / sun). Love every moment, especially pointing my box brownie at the fillies bounce
So is someone going to suggest a PH watering hole and time? Paddock at lunch break would be good imho. A rolled up copy of the Sporting Life should be carried (or any other racy paper!) to recognise fellow followers of speed!

I will be there for the three and a half days. Good fun at the cricket match at the house on the Thursday night with the drivers briefing afterwards. Weather looking good every day. Good place to meet is beer tent behind Dad's army area in front of where planes take off from and land (if that is not too vague). Best three days of the year/life. - will be wearing brown trilby and "parade" arm band that gets you into paddock and other places.

Ok so shall we go for the Beer tent at racing break (when is that)??! Copies of motorsport magazines in hand or everyone looking at mobile internet?! Cannot we do some twitter type flashmob thing?
