Got my name down for PH Sunday Service at Porsche/Silverstone but currently need about another 150 to drop out to get a place so may well see you at Shelsey wink

Might just do Shelsey anyway, even if I do make it into the top 500, much better breakfast (and better company) smile

That sounds good to me Simon, are we aiming for : arrive 8.15ish for a 8.30 deoarture?
I think that is what we did last time, or should we get going earlier as it gets busier these days?

Room for a little one at Redditch Sainsbury's?
See you there at 8:00 is it?

Sorry Philpot but I couldn't get the F type for this weekend. I'll have to let you know when I can and we'll go out for a run somewhere.

We usually welcome any TVR owner to join us when we go out as a bunch of S's. So a scabby Griff would go down nicely.

You need to register yourself on the Shelsley site to let them know the numbers for important stuff like how much bacon to cook.

Registering is not essential, I don't think anyone checks you in on arrival, but it does help the organisers get an idea of how many breakfasts to cook smile

Forecast is looking "Damp" ( understatement ) at the moment but if we get there early enough our regular parking spot under the paddock shelters should be available.

Hi AcidRich.
Warning!
If approaching Shelsley just after turning left off the B4203 westbound after Stanford Bridge, be aware of the sharp LEFT- hander at the end of a long straight bit, or you could unwittingly end up in the very boggy overflow car park!

And star in the tractor pulling event.

( Don't know what you lot are grinning about wink
At least I had the right car for the demo. Glad it wasn't the S. )

I'm convinced the farmer takes down the warning sign on Saturday night & sits in his tractor waiting for the next victim scratchchin

Haha,
I'm not usually a stick-in-the-mud biggrin
Better Glenn Close than Michael Douglas in " Falling Down".....

Probably won't make it this time, weather forecast not looking too good, & it's a good 2 hrs + drive for me.

Next year definitely thumbup
Have a nice one guys 'n' gals. yum

Last run on the old original front shockers, Sunday afternoon fitting the new adjustable SPAX, so lots of road tests to determine settings, all 28 increments on each one. Hope fuel prices don't go any higher.. !

Ok, I've booked in on the Shelsley site. If it's not p*ssing it down I'll be up for it.

Is it the Sainsburys on the A441 you are meeting at? I'm from Sutton so don't know the area that well.

If someone wants to PM me a mobile I can text if it's looking like I won't make it?

Fingers crossed
