Yep I've got mine too!

Big thanks to Ben and the PH crew.

I can't see any barcode or anything else though, it looks just like a several,line email, is that all we need to show?

In my experience the guys on the gates can be funny about stuff that does not look genuine, even though it is!
There's a barcode on the top right of the tickets. Although I don't seem to remember the rally staff having a scanner when you enter.?

Sorry, I had not released it was a link at first.

Posted that I missed it just after, they are there with the barcodes when I clicked on the link after being a bit dumb! Doh!

I'm not that brave! I'll be in my mk2 Fiesta. I'll be leaving late Thursday/very early Friday.

Perhaps a Stupid Question,

Looking at the maps Sweet Lamb and Hafren are very close. Is it possible to walk between them?

I can see that the Spectator spots on Hafren are further east, so I suspect it's not possible as we'd need to cross the stage.

Thanks,
Shaun

Morning all!

Your tickets have now all been emailed out, so please let me know if you haven't received them. If you can no longer attend, please send your tickets to me so they can be allocated to another member and remove your name from the list.

I'll be sending out a final email early next week with final details/information. Looking forward to seeing you all there!

Ben

Highly unlikely I doubt, but someone may say otherwise. You'd probably have time to drive to Hafren after the first run at Sweet Lamb has finished if you wanted to move on though.

whilst discouraged it is possible to walk cross country from Sweet Lamb to Hafren. It'll be a lot of hills and fields tho. if you plan to follow the stage out to the finish and follow the roads to a point along the Hafren stage, be aware of all the cars exiting the stage.

you don't have to head to a spectator pen on Hafren either wink driving between the stages can be a long option as traffic in and out of the stage will be using the same road, and that counts for both stages. but with enough planning you could manage it if you only plan on seeing the top 10-20 through and not hanging around for the national cars. they only run in the morning loop so only WRC category for afternoon stages.

Nice early start for me, I'm coming from Stoke hehe Mind you, it'll be just like getting up for work.
I've got a three hour journey in a Mk2 fiesta, am I mad? laugh
Suddenly I'm quite pleased about having a mere 2 and a bit hours to drive hehe plus my Megane should be a slightly nicer place to be at least. In theory any way...

I've received the ticket email, thought it may have been sent back today as I wasn't sure if my mate could make it not but days off are now officially booked and he's ready to catch up on some sleep on the journey down, he finishes work at about half 10 Thursday night hehe

At the stage will there be places for people to sit? Thinking of the mrs & just standing in the cold, wondering if it's worth bringing the camping chairs?

There's no seating at all, unless you have paid to be in one of the hospitality suites.

We always take folding camping Chairs .

Most likely not. We're bringing camping chairs as we don't fancy standing all day either.

Only saving grace is the weather looks to be kind for the weekend so the ground should be relatively dry (for forest on a bog). so sitting if wearing waterproofs maybe an option.

We will probably stay at Sweet Lamb for the morning and afternoon stages. In the past it's become increasingly difficult to move easily between stages, as it's too busy and to many access roads are closed.

We will pitch the Land Rover tent up and have bacon baps and burgers on the grill!

Come by and say hi if you spot us!
