Just seen that the excellent Thin Lizzy tribute Limehouse Lizzy are playing on Friday. Great news!
I've just realised that I haven't booked camping for my 19 year old daughter. I was wondering whether we could get away with booking her as a child as the cut off is 16. Anyone got any advice?
AC-DC Live wire look quite good but saying that after a few beers they will be brilliant :lol: http://livewire.website/video/you-sh...olmfirth-2016/
I think you've answered your own question there Anthony. :)Quote:

Let's hope this weather continues! 8-)

I phoned Silverstone and they can't guarantee getting a ticket to me by Saturday if I order today, but you can pay cash at the gate so we're going to do that and decide on the day whether to try passing her off as a 15 yr old!Quote:

I have been saying for a couple of years it would be easier to distribute the tickets on Thursday, so fine by me. Obviously the people setting up the stand will need their tickets to get in on Thursday but as long as we are all in Woodlands it saves stamps. Are we meeting at Watford Gap services this year?
Hi Tom, again just bring mine down with you.

I will have the gazebo and 2 flags with me as well :-)
Do you want to meet at the services Graham like last year? (Well hopefully not like last year lol)
Thanks Tommy I am aiming to arrive with Kris and Alison as they are not on hook up this year so will let you know if I am going to meet you as per last year or meet up with them elsewhere.

That's cos they closed the M40 at J12 last year... It was total gridlock!
Its as short as it is long for us to go m1 or m40, I tend to take the m40 simply because that's the route I use when I need to go to work near Heathrow.
Anyway, due to the unique way the Talbot is powered AND the sadly uniform way the motorway network is covered in roadworks, I would imagine we are looking at a 4-5 hour trip including comfort breaks.
So roughly, our ETA at woodlands would be 3-5pm depending on what time we get up.

Just one last weekend of events to attend at Cadwell Park this Sunday and then have to start getting the car cleaned for Silverstone.
Tom, will you be doing the tickets the same as last year, Special Delivery and pay you at Silverstone?
Phil
They're all here! :D

Will be posted out first class tomorrow, except for those that have requested that I bring them down with me.
Not long now! :D
Hi Phil, I can send yours special delivery if you'd prefer? Otherwise they'll go first class.Quote:

Great, any idea where our plot will be this year? Let's hope it's on the grass again, that was better than the tarmac I thought.Quote:

We're in Zone 13 (large grey area), which I think is mostly grassy. :)
Fab, thanks Tom. See you and Lois next week.
Thanks for the call Tom.
Zone 13 is I believe the Skylines and MX5's were last year... opposite the Brooklands hospitality centre.

I have been in touch with Kris since we are both taking motorhomes but they are not on electric hook up like Tommy and Anthony's vans. It would make sensetherefore for Kris and I to arrive together to ensure we can pitch up together. Since Kris's van has, purely for fuel economy, limitations to its top speed I can have an extra hour in bed and still arrive at the same time as Kris and Alison despite having further to travel. Kris' preferred meeting point is Cherwell Valley Services J10 M40 so I am going to meet them there at 2.30pm Thursday - that should mean we are at the campsite soon after 3pm. We can then meet with others on the campsite. I assume those arriving first will choose a similar location on the campsite to last year.
Graham
I wish it was just for fuel economy reasons 😂

Make sure you're not wearing anything from Primark on Friday night! http://www.independent.co.uk/news/pe...-a7148686.html

I should be able to make my first mk1 club meet. I only have to travel 10 mins up the road to get there too! I am however a tight git and was not prepared to pay ticket prices. I've got a number of mates work at Silverstone and they are going to bung me their passes for the weekend. I am not too sure if they will get me to the infield though. Does anyone know what the infield past is? If its just a ticket you out in your windscreen maybe I could walk in, nab someone else's pass, walk out and then bring mine in on someone else's pass?
Hi there,Quote:

Got a little something for you as a way of thanks when we see you next Saturday...
