I'm going Sat AM and camping and leaving Sunday PM.
150 miles each way for me.
How about a website group camping area?

Good idea!
We sort of had that last year with myself, BigG, Les, aupickup in one area with Onne, mr_pickup & Lou a few cars away.
That would be good though.
I guess if aupickup & Les are going to be there first that we should all find them and pitch nearby.

Yeah, it's about that. Shame you can't have the Friday off, 'cause we could convoy then!

Looking to come over early evening Friday and depart Sunday, bring the lad and do the camping father and son thing. Be interested in a web-camp-site plot too!

I might come on Friday and stay overnight if I can borrow a tent - I'll have to leave a bit early on Saturday though as my school leavers' ball is on the same day at 7:30pm in Cambridge.

I'll be there from friday untill sunday. Also a fair distance for me! I don't yet know what I am going to do in the week pre national, and the week after. My boat departs on saturday the 24th, so I'll be in the country!

I will indeed! And I will be in my series II.
I know, I should be ashamed of myself not finishing my MM
