Yes, the Departure Lounge is another great event, I shall be heading there after lunch. Officially starts at 2:00 pm but likely to be busy long before that!

Spare ‘tickets’ reservation?

Looks like I’ve missed the boat to book viewing entry to tomorrow’s breakfast meet.

If anyone is no longer going please could you forward your booking confirmation so I can please?

Fingers crossed, was looking forward to it.

Just got back home. Wow! That was my first breakfast club and thought it was an excellent event. Lovely to see so many different variants of cars.

It was good this morning, the weather played ball and a good eclectic range of cars. Really enjoyed it and not just because its the first time down at Goodwood in almost 2 years.

It was indeed a good event and a good mix of cars.

It's a few years since I went to BC, don't think it was as big before! Loads of cars plus absolutely loads of spectators coming in from the outside carparks.

Fortunately the weather forecast was wrong, only had a very few drops of rain on the way home instead of the predicted rain.

I assume volunteering? If so, thank you very much as it was such a great event.

Is that indicative of a usual breakfast club or was it extra big because everybody has been locked up at home for 1.5yrs?

First photo from this morning. Not one of the rare or quirky cars but instead a mint VW parked in the right place.
