Is their probably going to be a TMF camp or does it look like it's going to be too difficult to arrange?

The guys usually end up forming and impromptu camp around one another, people like me have a habit of forgetting theor tents, and clothes, oh - and food, so camping together has its benefits :techsupport:

I wasn't sure if the organisers were going to be really difficult with regards to people holding spaces or moving - group camping is always a good idea :techsupport:

well, seeing as they are not providing allocated spaces for clubs then they can't really complain if people hold spots and move to join friends

we should be there around mid afternoon on Thursday

so if every one heads to the blue VW camper you should all find each other

finding a stock height VW camper over a sea of minis and tents shouldn't be to hard

had a massive smile on my face today driving down the M42 AND M5 today, seen alot of minis rolling up the motorway, (10-15ish ok not alot but enough)
spent more time watching the traffic coming up the motoway rather than on my side going down.

had a call from a friend with ref to a nice Cream MK1 mini van he seen on the M25 this morning. funny thing was on the m42 tonight on the way home i seen the same mini! thats a long drive for that mini owner, Must have got lost or stuck in traffic.

any news on the how muddy it is down there today? weather seems to be ok for the weekend from what i see.

I'm pretty much set - just got to throw the food & beer in the car tomorrow after work and head up there! Hopefully the organisers won't be too much of a pain in the rear regarding camping as a club.
