Then those that need their beauty sleep could follow slightly later if they prefer and hope to park up together.

BTW, Thurrock to Brands without traffic takes under 10 mins.

Another point to mention is that there was a revised entrance to access the South Bank, Stay on the main road past the main entrance and turn left about 100yds beyond.
Thought you may have piped up on this one

Nice comments / Suggestion

Lets see what the other's think

i've got to find space to put all the food. anyone got an empty freezer?

speaking of food, is everyone still ok to split the cost down the middle?

was going to allocate a few rashers of bacon, 2 eggs, and 4 burgers per person (2 burgers for lunch and 2 for later on) plus a kebab each. enough? too much? do you want sausages as well?

would think that it'll be about £5 per head. should cover the gas for the bbq as well then. will be loads cheaper than buying 1 burger at £3 a pop at the venue.

cool box and cool bags would be much appreciated tiny. wouldn't want the food to go off in the searing heat that we're going to have. might need to collect them from you the night before?

Collecting from me on the 23rd Should not be a problem , YVM needs to collect the bbq , Gas , Marquee & Flags that day as well

what time are we aiming at leaving now?
To be honest i really think that we shoud aim to meet @ Thurrock @ 6-45am & Leave @ 7am , This should get us all in nicely parked up & Time to have breakfast & get cleared up before the racing starts
