New photo oppurtunities at brands!
was quite pleased to notice today that they've removed the tall fencing from the entire infield druids area, meaning you can get some quite good pics from various places in there now, rather than just the exit of druids, will post a link to kind of pics im talking about later

Also for the media, the champcar fencing has now gone from outside the medical centre (which is great news) and also from the foot of Paddock Bend on the inside up to druids (also great news). The new "footway" at Druids is very muddy at the moment from post 5 to post 6 behind the barrier though!!

If you have an MSV fixture book there is a "comments to JP" e-mail address in the foreward. If you are either a happy-pro, or a happy-amateur it might be worth e-mailing him to say how much you appreciate the changes at Druids? It was nice to see so many people "inside" at the weekend enjoying the "photography enclosure" as it was always called. Hopefully the "Champcar" fencing which has infuriated both amateur and pro for the last 2 years has not come down to just make way for permanent debris-fencing. I tend to think not, but time will tell.
