Just been looking on the site, does it make sense to buy advanced tickets??

Standard in jap car £15
Advanced in jap car £12 +£2 booking and £3 for postage?!

Or am I being silly and reading wrong?


Ok, I have read it properly now, is £17 now with booking fee as can't be posted and does not say you can get tickets there

Looks like rain according to BBC and uk.weather.co.uk ........Its making me think twice, as will be a wasted day in the rain, and cleaning my car will be pointless!

Its changing forecast every few hours, going to leave it until sat afternoon to decide.

A couple of showers wont ruin the day, but I wont be cleaning the car regardless since I have a wedding to go to tomorrow!

Chaps, gutted but I'm going to have to pull out of this, my stupid sister has booked a day out for fathers day, with me, but failed to tell me about it. Tried to get out of it, but was told she has already bought tickets, and I would not be spoken too if I did.....although that did sound tempting haha.

Really sorry again, make sure you take a lot of photos and have a good day, the weather looks like its going to be good too for you and for me!
