With all due respect, the thieves know which hotels are used when events are on at Oulton Park, and this event has been widely publicised on this bbs for several weeks now.
I doubt naming the actual hotel increases the risk. I'd be happy to chip in some dosh for a guard though.

Harj - I'll tell her you've got some new brakes, too. But I suspect she'll be trying to help you brake anyway, despite the lack of a pedal!!



Cheers mate.

I'll do your security if u want as i live within walking distance of the hotel, of course i'd need full access to your cars, for reasons of access etc lol !

Seriously, i know the area well. It's not a haven for thiefs but cars have been stolen from the area , and if lots of high value/performance cars were parked up together and seen by the opportunist... . The car parks are in view of the road/houses and most have CCTV but i'd still be wary.

Their is a large overnight car park next to the International Hotel, near to the 'Town Hall' in the centre of Chester. This is roofed and is manned 24hrs by security. It's about a 10 min walk from the Moat House. Failing that, park up where your car can be seen and heard, not in some little corner off the road.

You simply must sample the local pubs n clubs. I'd recommend Brannigans and Rosies which is my favourite haunt.
All the plebs are kept outside and you're guaranteed a large quota sexy ladies and a good laugh . Arrive early or u wont get in and smart dress in required.
