Gutted as I missed last years and have been looking forward to this one since then.
I might duck out early we plan to go carting in the afternoon..a few beers and a meal then on to a club..if I can get out of the club bit ..getting old and can't really be bothered with night clubsn then i should be ok but all attending enjoy a beer or two and I tend to get carried away when I have a pint in hand so it will be a judgement I can only make on the morning of the 13th.

I expect to be there. As long as the rain stops out here in France and all the bridges and tunnels stay intact and we can get home at the weekend. Rivers are high and trees are falling.

Last night a tree fell across the power line to the village, and when they switched in the alternative a bit later there was a massive power surge which caused more problems :(

I won't be at the Saturday evening "do" at the Sparkford Inn, as I'll be at a family BBQ in Surrey - my grandson's first birthday :D - but I can recommend it to anyone who's thinking of going along.

Planning to be there on the Sunday with at least one older Saab - I'll (MoT permitting) have 3 roadworthy cars (the 95's still waiting some attention) by then ....... so am looking for "spare volunteer drivers" :lol: .

If you want to bring any “Auto Jumble” you are welcome and we plan to place this by the fence that runs along the race track.

I will be there. I told my mate that I'm karting with them..having a 6pm drink but avoiding the meal and club..that way I won't be tempted to stay untill silly oClock.
Mot booked for this Friday..still not sure if I want to risk fitting the overhauled gearbox before the day...
I'm hoping to fill the car with 2 stroke, V4 and C900 bits.

hi guys and girls
weather outside in very good today with another nice day promised for tomorrow.
Trophies have been collected and my two cars cleaned, just need to get all those small items ready, flags, banners etc.
Hope to see you there in the morning from 10am.
Don't forget, no fast rules, just come along, park up, fill in the forms, chat and look at the other cars.
If you have any Swedish Auto jumble you are welcome to set up a stall.
See some of you at the meal tonight.
Robin.
