Looking forward to this, booked in with the derbyshire classic moc. Do you have a postcode of whereabouts it is? I'm sure I'm meant to know - but forgot, probably! :lol:

If you've got a ticket for the main bit, 'LN1 1YW' should get you to the right place. If you've got a ticket for the new SOUTH bit like me, you'll have to drive round in random circles until you stumble over it - there are no clues apparently... :lol:

Instructions will be sent out to all our 'South siders' and the south site will be signposted on the day.

However, whilst I'm on...

If you are familiar with the Brayford site, and how to get there then finding the south site is very easy. There are in fact three ways.

Firstly (and not recommended) you can drive your Mini over the edge of the Brayford into the water and hope it floats to the other side >_<

Secondly you can use the postcode LN6 7TS in your sat nav, which will get you there or

Thirdly, if you pick up the A57 (Brayford Way) in Lincoln and cross over the flyover you get to the roundabout (where McDonalds is) and go all the way round (back on yourself) onto the flyover again. At the traffic lights you need to turn left onto Campus Way, then right at the mini roundabout (still campus way). You'll travel through student land until you come to the University entrance, where one of our happy stewards will be waiting to greet you and direct you to the site. If you put the postcode into Google maps, it gives you a good indication where you will be.

There will be over 70 minis on the south site. All passes should be out tonight at the latest for those who have not had them yet.

I always remember the main site postcode as LN1 1XL (as XL is BIG) that takes you straight to the entrance.

Hoping for good weather on Sunday!

There are only 2 or 3 trade stands, but both years I've been to Lincoln, I've picked up something cheap :)
So not bad!!
