We can get local pubs to pre-order some lemonade for your pints if you do come up.

And we can get some copies of Scottish-English translation books on the bar at Banbury ready when you come down..
and maybe some 'Glasgow Salad ' to make you feel at home

Are there any plans for a night out or anything in the Banbury / warwick area. I used to work down there so know me way around sort of.

beetie wants to camp,

would have been ideal to get all of TTS in the same hotel for a pissup, but that plan has failed now as it seams to scoobymassif is buying up all hotel spaces left right and centre on the night

i added a list to TTS with who's confirmed and exactly which hotel they are in at the moment to try and let everybody know exactly what's happening

Right the wife had made a decision and said she would like to go

We live in France so will be coming over via Portsmouth.
We have family in the north east so am unsure weather to come over earlier and meet the convoy in Lanark or just go straight to Banbury

Would rather meet up with some of you guys for night out/stop over/**** up somewhere possibly Fri/Sat and maybe even Sunday night as the ferries are usually in the AM.
Not bothered if you plan to camp or hotel it but on a budget as the ferries will be £200+ so no posh gaffs

What you guys think? What are your plans and is there room for us

Isn't anybody else planning on going
Surely we can sort a night out for the Saturday at least. Worried if I don’t book there will not be a hotel or B&B anywhere near Banbury

It seams like an event not to miss which is why I want to make it over

If you purchased the sticker through the McRae site then we have your details

If you purchased your sticker from a friend or another source other than the McRae site then i need you to send an email to

enquiries AT mcrae-gathering.co.uk

I need your name, car registration and mobile number to be included.

This is due to the amount of cars expected at prodrive Banbury and in case we need a car or two shifted in emergencies a member of the Prodrive staff can easily get in touch

Thanks

Grant

If you can make it we are leaving from Swindon at 6.30 if you can be bothered to drive up to us. Not sure where you are in S Wales but should be an easy trip up the M4

A quick post from aboard...

Getting back into the country friday, hopefully in time to give the cars a quick clean and then we are coming up on Sunday.

Anyone else heading up the M40 to Banbury ?

Yeah we are looking at a 9am arrival too so if you could make it the more the merrier

As you are one of our detailing gurus I may have some questions for you so it would be good to put a face to the name we see so often on here !!
