Exactly the same on all counts for me.

A quick question, I know it's early to be thinking about this sort of thing, but I'll probably be wanting to take my mate and 3 year old godson with me. Does anybody know if my godson would require a separate ticket, or can he get in with us?

I'm told that three is over the age when a ticket is needed. Give the circuit a ring in a couple of weeks (when they'll have the list from the MSA). They'll need to have the proof you're marshalling to sell you a stand-alone child ticket - they're half the usual adult price.

So that's who took my place.
Next time I dig a trench, be careful you don't fall in it.

Applied for Cadwell Park, hope I get in!

Well done Al and well done everyone else who is in.

Now's the time for the practical stuff that always catches the newbies (and the not so newbies out).

Don't forget that you will need to arrive at some point on Thursday afternoon/early evening as all discipline's will have a briefing on Thursday at which point tabards will be issued.

...and the one that nearly catches me out every year...unless it's changed, if you want to camp NEXT to someone with each of you having a camping pitch, you need to tick the "adjacent to" box on the card. IF you tick the "camp with" box you end up on the same pitch with one car pass between you which usually causes a bit of a last minute panic

Relax, guys. I'm in, too, so the Curry Club will be operating as usual (Sweet and Sour Club for you, Steve).

garybirch · 5 Feb 2010, 12:49 (Ref:2627228)

On holiday in france so don't know if I'm in yet!
Last year the list was online but can't find it this year yet.
Anyone got the list of all volunteers or does that come in the second letter?

Don't think the list(s) will be published until after all replies have been received at the earliest.

Think it was about June last year.
