Hi Guys, quick question.
Is it worth us bringing the club fire-pit, will we be allowed to use it and if so there's not much wood lying around 'woodlands' site, is there? :confused:

Hope that helps.
Thought so but just thought I'd ask, Ta
Firepit will not be needed Bill, we have central heating if it is cold :D
Show off! We'll have some firewater instead :pQuote:

They'll be in the post first class this afternoon. :)
Cheers,

Ooooh exciting :D
Excellent. See you on Thursday. Think were getting there about 3 - 4PM
Hopefully we will be meeting at the Watford Gap services around 1pm. Anthony and I are hoping to hit the M1 at Jnct 37 around 11am so we should be at Watford Gap around 1pm. It is another 30 to 40 minutes to Silverstone from there, so McDonalds lunch and head to Silverstone for around 2 or 3pm. Are you joining us Graham, Gary and Bill?
I will meet you at Watford Gap at 1pm - sounds like a plan.Quote:

See you all at Watford Gap at 1pm :thumbup: roll on Thursday
Excellent, Anthony is bringing his car so Sonia will be towing the caravan, we all have each others mobiles so any problems we will be able to contact each other :D
I will give Bill a call just to see if he can make it and let you know, fingers crossed.
Roll on Thursday :thumbup:
In have sent 'new' Bill a message asking him if he would like to meet at Watford GapQuote:

To all those who have not been to the Classic before please come and see us on the Thursday night for a few beers. We have electric hook up and are happy to charge phones or anything else. Also it is useful to be prepared as there is so much to do at the show, Friday tends to be the quietest day so you need to take advantage of the smaller queues at certain things. Getting to the wing is easy if you know how but it took me 3 years to find out how :p
The 4x4 experience is great but it is not well signposted and the Jaguar drifting is great. The drifting is very close to our stand so should be easy to find. It is well worth buying a program and ear radios as they make the races much more followable (not sure that is a word lol). The programs are massive and have so much useful information in them. Security is supposed to be more stringent this year so there may be queues on the gates but hopefully not too bad.
Anyway enough waffle but please do try to get to either Gary, Tom and Grahams camp or Anthony and my camp to meet up :D
There were no queues at the Grand Prix. They seemed to check about 1 bag in 5. Looking forward to heading back again soon!Quote:

Remember Tommy, the MR2 Mk1 Club supports responsible drinking. :lol:
See you all Thursday! :D
In that case I would like to tender my resignation! ;)Quote:

I might have to turn the central heating up :D
Tommy, we're dropping pets off at various places tomorrow so going in convoy from 11 won't work. We'll be at Watford Gap for 1 pm though
No problem mate, we might see you on the M1 but you will have to push it to keep up with the mighty Hymer :DQuote:

All packed up and ready to go!

My favorite view at woodlands. Nothing says motorsport better than bright yellow bog cubicle doors [emoji1]
Have a great time
Wish i could have made it this year but so much to do. Hope you all have a great time maybe next year will be less manic.
Sampling those doors this morning :rolleyes:
Silverstone crew!
