Went looking for a new disk today without any luck, so that puts an end to any testing or practise before the event
Good, you were plenty fast enough last time
Whichever you prefer. You'll need to entertain yourselves for a few hours on Friday night though.
Yes. One of the benefits of being a Scout leader is being able to steal all their furniture.
More the merrier! Check your PM box, I'll send you the address. (Ditto Carless.)

You'll probably see us mid/late morning 'cos we can't dispatch of the kids before 9, but we'll bomb down in the van as quick as we possibly can.
Roo could you please pm either myself of Spec with a phone number incase we need directions. His satnav is not always that reliable. I won't tell you where we ended up when he drove us to Alton Towers!!

It'll be lateish. I'm not stupid enough to drive on the M1 during POETS day rush hour on a Bank Hollibob weekend. I'll be leaving here no earlier than 6pm, though I'll be taking a sneaky route which will make something of a mockery of Google's 5hr claim.
So I suspect we'll be there around 10.30pm, unload stuff, drink a bit then go to sleep.

O rly? Unfortunate for you, but oh so incredibly fortunate for me who will still be oop norfLooking forward to this
I now notice also that there's an American car show on in Stockton on the same weekend, which is unfortunate timing.

Ya rly.
I'm not sure where exactly, but my flatmate and one of my friends will be working on a bar there which is how I heard.
In fact (edit: eek, massive pic):
Sorted.

due to unforseen circumstances im going to have to pull out of the lan im afraid. Cass has convinced me to buy her a honda beat and the only time we can pick it up is this weekend. We were planning to rock up to the lan in it however theres a problem with insurance so we have to pick it up a day later which will not mean getting the car untill late saturday. if we dont get it saturday we dont get it at all unfortunately!
We will try and pop in on the sunday but we will have to see how things pan out.
cheers
oh and for the record its not my fault that there are two places called alton within 20 miles of each other! F*ing sat nav!

Theres also a large Tesco's one junction up the motorway, a good pub 1km to the east, and a few more drinking estabishments about 1km to the south - most of which will see me at some time on the friday. Still undecided whether to join you all on the friday night, or stay at a friends where I know there's a spare bed.

If you could make the Sunday that'd be wonderful, I'd love to have a poke around a Beat.

Tables and chairs are in. Whoever arrives tomorrow evening needs to be prepared to do some furniture moving - not much, but it's heavy stuff. You have been warned 
Edit: Nearly forgot - Famine, please can you send me / bring with you the Random Track Generator?

Last time I moved furniture, I ended up in the back of an ambulance, and casualty. Please may I be excused if I bring a note from my mum?Tables and chairs are in. Whoever arrives tomorrow evening needs to be prepared to do some furniture moving - not much, but it's heavy stuff. You have been warned

We were still aiming to come and say 'hello' on Saturday, its just very difficult to fit a tv, ps2 etc into the non exsistant boot of a Beat! So I guess it all depends on which you'd rather have at the lan...? The Beat or racing equipment?

It looks like there's plenty of TV's and just enough wheels, so no need to worry about the bulkier equipment. Headphones and DS2's are a little bit short and they won't take up much of that non existant space.
Besides, it's the people that make the event, not the surplus equipment!
