Please don't turn up if you're not in the 300. Morgan have very kindly invited us and only people with their name on the list will be allowed in so please don't make a wasted journey if you're not in the 300.

Thank you

Nathan
So even of one turns up as a pedestrian, we won't be allowed in like we have been at other Subday Services?
That seems a bit harsh

There's not much point in having a list if everyoneoutside the 300 parks round the corner and walks in.

Yes but the 300 pertains to cars which is to be expected. I don't see how a few extra pedestrians milling around affects anything? At the MB-world SS they were encouraging pedestrians

The 300 is for cars rather than people. Morgan have kindly invited 300 cars to turn up and not 300 cars on site and another 100 parked around the corner, I worry it may be seen as taking the mickey as we are on their site. As others have said, it makes a mockery of the Sunday Service sign up if people ignore it.

As I said, if you aren't in the 300, please don't turn up.

Thank you

MBW is a very big site, Morgan is not.

I think this is very reasonable.

I am not in the 300 yet and live reasonably close, but would not dream of taking the piss and turning up uninvited.

Nathan I didn't mean to open a can of worms with my advice on local parking. I wasn't aware of the restriction on foot traffic . As a local, literally a neighbour of the site, and being very proud of MMC and the surrounding countryside I wanted as many people as possible to enjoy both. I do take your point about not taking the mickey though but also feel they would lose out on charity donations and possibly future clients as we are just the types who buy their quirky characterful product.

I'll be turning up on my bike with a mate on his, will he need to park up outside and jump on the back of mine or will we be allowed to park both bikes in the space taken by one car?

Looking forward to this, weather looks to be dry too. Fingers crossed the sun comes out.

I've checked with Morgan and they are going to allocate space for 6 bikes without encroaching on the 300 car spaces so if you want to take a bike and are on the list, please remove yourself thumbup

eta: please send me an email through my profile if you are taking a bike.

300 places? that's more than population of Malvern!

I think that's too many attend, lots of stuff to view will be missed as a result.
