Let me think about it........????

Pay good money to:
try and find a seat on the train (no way I'm driving!!)
pay more money to:
be trod on by oiks with carrier-bags
view demo versions of cars I may or may not find in my local gravel trap
get charged silly money for food or worse.....
have to sit on the floor to eat my sandwiches
realise that someone is charging £100+ for shirts I have an abundance of. (and got them for free)
be trod on by oiks with carrier-bags
and then, to top it all.......

realise (as I fight my way back onto the train) that the one person I really wanted to meet was actually there all day and we never met!!!

You think I'm going to bother?????

I make the show the start of the season and have only missed one of the last five or so (last year) - though I've never been on the public days...

I think its mega, but its really a trade show - to do deal meet contacts... etc..

Also for getting sponsors etc.. its ideal, also I heard Woolley was buying...

Ian S... would be good to meet up as I'll hopefully be able to announce something very good. Do you have my office no?

Friday and looking forward to seeing all sorts of people. The Motorsports Safety Fund/Sid Watkins lecture, given this year by Martin Brundle, should be good listening and will attract the usual group of marshals, organisers and some others.

Bringing my own sandwiches and blagging a coffee!

I'll be there on Friday too. Hopefully see some of you there. I'll probably be found milling around the SPA / Barber Dodge Pro Series thinking up more ways to get the money to get in the car for next year

Have fun everyone!

I'll be there on Saturday as usual.

The only reason I go is because I'm a member of BRSCC and they get us free tickets otherwise I'd stay at home. I get fed up with blokes ogling all those scantily clad girls. When are they going to realise that us girls would like to see some scantily clad men?!!

Sheila, fair's fair! It's the only time we really get to see the scantily clad ladies, whereas you and other pit poppets (my own dear wife included) have all season to drool over fit young men clad in tight nomex......

And do....

I've never understood the attraction of the packaging. Surely its the contents which counts?
