Some of us have to work for a living! :P
Mine were there when I got home.

Now, are there any plans afoot to meet up somewhere.
I'm coming from North London.
I can't be arsed with the Dartford Crossing, so will probably go through the Blackwall.
I noticed the entry times on the ticket are from 7:00 AM
Sod that for a game of soldiers!
I believe the time mentioned was to get in by 9:00 AM, to get on the club stand.
Is that still the case?

Ye what happened last year was that they cut off cars from 9am from entering, as that's when the general public are allowed in, so they don't want cars maneuvering around. We aimed to get there for 8:30 last year, stopped at a couple of service stations on the way to collect as a group. Cobham services was the last stop, we left there at 8. We met near Heathrow services before that.

There is a lot of traffic when you get to the entrance, if we could get to the gates for 8 this time (this is coming from someone who hates mornings), that would be great as last year we were queing for ages... very thankful for electric fans, would be worried otherwise. What would everyone say to leaving Cobham services at 7:30 to get there for about 8:15?

I guess if you're coming from North London, you would go via central? Chevy Stu joined us from Heathrow as he's near Wembley but i think it's quicker for him to go through central. That part of the day should be pretty good on traffic based on some Tunnel runs we've done at those sort of times.

I'm going to stick my neck out with a bit of advance honesty here.

I was among the 'chosen' for a PistonHeads Sunday Service at Topcats Racing on Sunday.
I monitored the weather all week hoping for improvement.
Late Saturday night, it was still saying rain on Sunday morning for that area, so I bailed out.

This week I will again keep an eye on the forecast, and my fingers crossed.
But if, God forbid, come Saturday night, it's saying loads of rain at Brands on Sunday, then I'll be having a lie-in. :o
I get up at 5:00 AM all week and getting up at an (increasingly) early hour on Sunday, to get rained on a lot, is not my idea of fun.

But, hey, let's think positive. It will be dry all day, won't it! :)
Cheers
