Ah! got a problem here,ime a member but havent got my sticker through yet,the ent fee's gone down hasnt it?
I think you people that have organised this deserve a well earned 'pat on the back' for having the courage to move it away from Knebworth and although its going to feel strange ime looking forward to the new venue.

[V7TTE]

Cheers Cliff...

If you get in touch with Membership Sec Tab Barnes (01964 501325) he may be able to help, but you need to call him today to give him any chance of getting your sticker to you in time!

Can't you sneak in as an OAP Cliff I probably could

Is the driving test only on the Saturday? And is it the same formula as previous years (grass and cones?)

Just to let all of you know the M25 road works that I mentioned on the other thread are both ways between junctions 25 and 26 at the homesdale(?) tunnel. Its common for traffic to be backed up pass the juctions before.

And the moral of the story is never pay your membership fee in cash to the Club Treasurer and if you do, get a receipt. I've been rumbled.

Yes, Cliff, the entrance fee last year was £6.50 per person per day as I recall.

Yes and Yes (see Pete's link above for timings)

Fran, please let us know when you intend to do the driving test so that we can clear the area of the public...........

Gee thanks Richard. Alas I'm only going to be there on the Sunday. How come they're only running it the one day? It was always better attended and spectated by the public on the Sunday.

It's also the only way I get to show off my car - mine doesn't work as a 'concours' model!!

[Cuban]

Have a great time everyone. Sorry I can't join you.

[cheeky]

I'll be there on Sunday, travelling up in a friend's C3 since the Z hasn't quite arrived. How will I know any of you? If I get home between now and then I'll dig out my PH "One Track Mind" shirt.
