Hotel can be cancelled up to 4pm day of arrival, or 24 hours before, one or the other.
I am going to cancel mine, sorry folks.

So, anyone else dropping out? (This is NOT a dig at you Chuck)

I'm not too bothered if there are only a few of us going, might be better, who knows? Not really up for the driving as the clutch is dodgy, so really up for a few beers on Sat and givin it large at the park.

Anyone just coming along on the Sunday?

I'm probably still going at the mo, the guys up there put a fair bit of work in and have a decent drive sorted that a fair few are going too, plus I've already arranged it with the friends I'm taking.............

(Neil makes mental note to not arrange things anymore after this and Brighton)

Question

Can I come along??

Got a season ticket and it seems silly not to use it (oh and I'd need to do the hotel bit as well, don't fancy getting up at 6 am on a Sunday).

Yeah I think so - the pub and hotel are in one and about 30 mins from AT - perhaps ChrisB would vouch as he almost lives next to the pub........

Thunderbird - Mail me on my email addy in profile and I'll give you the hotel details mate AND YES do come along, as Marcus says

I'll need the hotel details, southern meeting point, etc. Can I mail someone for these (due to company security policy I cannot display my e-mail details) or alternatively, could one of the Mods mail the info to me?

Cheers

Deb

Well, went to garage and mr clutch is an ex-clutch, or soon will be, so it is booked in on wednesday to have it sorted, so hopefully I'll be well up for giving it large on the drive. However, if things go pear shaped and clutch does not turn up/not fitted then I'm afraid I won't be coming, as the clutch could give out at any time. Apologies in advance if I do pull out. Will post an update on what's happening so you know.

Will keep my fingers and legs crossed for ya

ok.

For anyone thats coming from the south. We'll meet at Toddington Services on the M1 which is just north of Luton.
Its the first services after the M25/M1 junction.

We need to meet the northern lot around 11:30 on the A50 services so will need to leave Toddington by around 10am to ensure we've plenty of time to get there. So we'll aim to meet at Toddington at 9:30am.

see you there

Folks

I went there the other week and complained to them about the state of the park and said I wouldnt go back.
They sent me 2 vouchers that basically give entry for 2 for the price of one.
Thus 4 people for the price of two.

Anyone want them?
Mail me your address and I will send you the vouchers

Jas

Nice one - thanks for the offer - I've already got a 2 for 1 but there may be others going that can use them .

Cheers!
