Hi Janelle. We are planning to set off early-afternoon from RAF Lyneham, nr Swindon. We'll be heading cross-country, via Swindon/Oxford, to the Corby/Kettering Holiday Inn. Where are you staying Sat night?

Hi Dave,

I'm staying at the Holiday Inn too! What time you going?

 

[Matt]

Cool janelle. My first chance to see my first lunar before the show!

Get yourself booked in Nas, looking like it's gonna be a good turnout the night before for a few sociable beers!

Looking forward to it everyone

Way, way back in this thread there was brief mentions of people bringing snack food, drinks etc. I won't now have room to bring anything like that this year. (no support car).

Please feel free to put anything you might want to bring in the club tent as usual.

Booked Kettering Park Hotel for Sat. I didnt fancy getting up at 5.30am to drive up etc! England are the evening game Sat night so I will be totally unsociable between hours 7.30 and 9.30! I do apologise in advance. I will drive up between the game before ours and our game. 5.00-7.30! Should take 1hr 45 which gives me 45 mins to check in and find somewhere to watch the match. All meticulously planned out! After 9.30pm I am anyone's! :rofl:

Not OCD hence mine is always at the back, feel free to wash it if you need a greater fix.

:approve: I dont know what time others are getting to the hotels and what plans they have for the evening???????

 

[Matt]

We should be at ours for early afternoon (around 2pm) then head out for tea about 6ish (if ok with everyone) I guess or something like that.

Was thinking the same Matt. Was even considering bringing a hosepipe (for connection to the hotel's secret tap) but will probably just use the nearby jetwash garage that I found last year.

 

[Anonymous]

Yeah sounds good Matt, I was thinking the same, wash and then shower and out for tea around 6ish

 

[RUSSO]

Janelle, you would need a very long hose pipe
Last year just took a bucket and gave cars a quick once over in car park.
See ya Sat :approve:
