First time at this meeting for me. Looking forward to it and hoping it lives up to the reputation it has.
Then again, my experience of HSCC is that they usually exceed my expectations so no worries on that front. |

 I usually go along thinking 'nice old cars, I expect there'll be some decent races. And then find they're lovely cars and fantastic racing.[off topic]I did once fill in a customer survey for something which had been awful, but the questionnaire was full of leading questions which made it hard to say so. Until I got to the one which said 'Did we match your expectations and in what way' to which I answered 'Yes - I expected it to be rubbish and it was'![/off topic] Quote:

No sign of ours yet - and I know they posted them early for us as they were going "international" - the vagaries of the Irish postal system continue to be a mystery!

I'm sure we'll find a way to sort something out. Margaret Simpson is Chief Marshal, If you need her details PM me.
On a separate subject, have you tried the new Crabbies flavours? The strawberry and lime is particularly nice. |

Crabbies
Paul I assume you are talking ginger beer and not the crustaceans we know and love?

The only 'Crabbies' I ever had, I found that Boots had a very good blue coloured lotion which seemed to sort the problem out, I think I still have half a bottle if any one is interested……and yes i am just back from the pub……
Bladders…. |

Glad I'm not camping then! Mrs Broadbent's youngest son will be in his own bed each night.
I hear those little blighters can jump six feet at least. At least the F5000's will drown out the screams from Bladders.

I'll be there on monday for my second day's marshalling! Looks like we might be getting a bit wet... On that subject, as I don't yet have any orange waterproofs, are there any other colours that would be considered appropriate?

It was a bit wet today too at times...how many marshals can fit in a box!?
To answer your question, black waterproofs are probably the best alternative and are regularly seen. Basically, any colour that doesn't clash with a flag.

So, is Mark reinventing sardines for marshals then?
How many orange'uns can you get in a green box? Answers to race control by Monday afternoon. Winner gets a grapefruit. So tired, must sleep. |

The only limit depends upon the size of the box
Lakeside takes so many more! |
