Gaydon!!!
Since I've finally managed to confirm some holiday time and we've raided the back of the sofa and a few piggy banks, I can confirm we're coming to Gaydon. And I think we might be camping, if the option is still open. This is my favorite part of the country so I'm hoping to to sneak in some daydream house hunting whilst we're there, as well as the annual dropping the dog in the Avon for a swim.
So, who's coming? Who's camping? What are you bringing? Are you excited yet?

Re: Gaydon!!!
Hoping to make it but doubt we'll be there Saturday.
Trapped nerve means driving the 944 is to say the least uncomfortable.
Either way the pain will last for two days after the event.
But some things are best done and not regretted.

Re: Gaydon!!!
Getting up there too early on the day won't get you in any faster. The Gate Marshalls will not let people in without wristbands until around 10:00am.
I'm sure you will be able to find us just ask in the club Marquee.

Car is polished, packed and ready to go. Now I've got to pack. This is the hard bit. Exactly how many shoes and handbags do I need to stand in a field all day?

By the look of the weather report you'll need a bucket of sun tan lotion!
