Beautiful. Is the lake still there? Could have a swim instead of showers!

You can try! No location has been decided upon. Nothing can be announced until it is "watertight" as you can understand. Usually as soon as the Committee know it is announced

It all depends on budget etc. Knebworth is v. expensive to hire now they've found it's a good venue for pop concerts. Last quote to MMOC I think they'd added in the date!

Knebworth looks nice, but as atleast the last two rallies have been south of Birmingham (I don't know of the previous ones) in the interest of fareness wouldn't it be better to go further north.

Been to nearly every National since '86 & the most memorable was Billing Aquadrome, Northampton organised by the late wonderful Pete Ball.
