So, there's 2 weekends of preparation to go before the big trip. Everybody ready to rumble?

Everyone got their European cover sorted? Breakdown and insurance?

So, we are meeting at the entrance to Brands Hatch on the morning of the 1st, at 0700, prompt.

We'll hand out the run packs, stickers, T-shirts and camping wristbands. Please remember to have your ferry booking reference with you (and your passports of course).

Stuff you'll need:

Hazard triangle
Hi-vis jacket for each occupant of the vehicle (kept in the passenger compartment)
Spare bulb kit
European breakdown cover documents
Passports
Camping gear
Any spares that you see fit
Headlamp adaptors
Euros
Beers for me
matches/lighter for camp fire! :)
Tales for camp fire
Full tank of fuel for when we get to Brands too, so we're ready to rock and roll as soon as we set off to Dover! :(

Not ready yet just found a leak in my radiator and need to change my voltage stabilizer or I have no temp or fuel gauges working. Also need to do my upper steering column bushes. :/ It's gonna be close. Think I've got everything else on the list although thanks for reminding us we need passports that one had totally slipped my mind.
