Lis Cardiff is full of places for kids to eat. There is a run of open air bars/restaurants which I am sure cater for kids superbly. Its where I first met Shazzybird!!! You will not have any problems finding places to eat Im sure. As for fish and chips - Im not sure where but thee are probably loads of places. Just sniff and walk in the right direction!!!

Just had E mail from 'Jay' (Chas and Dave official website) and he says YES they are still booked.

You on the syrup early Bird. Tasha responded to 'I love tractors' post not mine!!! Take more tonic with it next time please

I hadnt noticed that B52 - Thats a bit poor. Picking up on practice day is so much easier. Matt - get it sorted!!

You dont want to sit there with all the hoorah henry's. Come and sit with us with the real screaming shouting fans!!!

That will be high up on the 4th bend. Great fun last year and we had the section all to ourselves so we went a litle crazy. Last year I took all these details and put them on a map. Then as a warm up to the meeting we played spot the forum member. Needed the phone for a few as well to make them jump up and down or other silly things. Well - we had fun and it gave us something to do as we waited!!!!

well.......... na - that sounds fine by me and I will agree on behalf of the rest of my group.

I wasnt offeing space for the other 2

Sorry Lis but mine has gone. I have PM'ed someone else though who I think has had to cancel a room, but not sure if they have done it yet. I/they will get back to you as soon as they/we can. And Jay - the floor hasnt been booked yet!!!

Im getting worried now. First you are wiling to accept a lift from me ( astranger - ish) and now you are following me to my hotel. Im beginning to get worried. Did you get tips from Billy J's stalker!!!

Damn and blast. With Chas and Dave most of us will have recognised their music in one form or another and wold have been toe-tapping. These wannabe's will be playing thier own music to promote their own careers - not worth coming in for BUT - now I dont know what to do as we want t obe in there for the juniors!!! Hmmmmm

Im sure you can borrow my Pink Cowboy hat form an hour or two!!!!

You are a tinker Lora and you will get in trouble And a half pint for Robbo as well please. But yes - a brilliant idea - now how can this actually be organised??!!

and some - during!!

We are going over by car overnight Friday getting into Essen around 10am Saturday. At the moment we booked into the Mecure (wih pool) BUT that may change to Holiday Inn due to connections Then picking a place to drive to, possibly Brugge on the Sunday before heading home late Sunday night (Plus Beer and wine stop on route somewhere!!!)

so how do you plan on getting there then?

No - you could be following us. And you chose not to come with us so we may not want to see you at all!!! Are you going by ferry, train or plane??

we had booked Gelsenkirchen but on hearing thats its all indurtrial and no night life we cancelled and are now staying in Essen. Nice town and good drinking holes for after the GP's! Just need to find those that sells Jagermister!!

Has the shop run out of polo shirts all together then. - Buzzy where ae you??!!! Also maybe Swerve (who sneeks a peek on here every now and then) can let us know if he's dropping any off by Friday. Two minute - send me your requiremnts and a mobile number and I can call you from the track shop on friday (weather permitting) and let you know whats there. This method has worked succesfully before hasnt it Janey!!

Due to changes in some of our company I now have a Room available at The Lodge by MacDonald (Now Mercure Hotel) for Cardiff weekend The Hotel £90 a night and it is booked for 2 nights (TOTAL £180) It sleeps 4 people. Has continental breakfast Car Park Also a free refreshment area in lobby (or at least it did last year!!) If interested PM me

Use the link in my signature and they are very good at getting them out to you. If it doesnt help - (Ive just been on it and he only has the Pit shirt on there at present) IM me and I will get what you want on Friday and either post it to you or pass it on to you at cardiff.

1hr 30mins remaining. And lots of interest

Seems to be hotting up with 2 days to go. Which Riders Jacket will be the most popular??

I have read the first couple of pages on this thread and I am dissapointed its not at Sheffield as the journey is easier. Getting to Kings Lynn is certainly not a easy journey from here but what will be will be!! But my observations are that those arguing / dicussing are not the elite League fans but the Sheffield fans with the Eastern club fans. Everyone has an opinion and all 3 leagues fans attend these meetings but it just makes me laugh that there are very few Elite league fans arguing about the change of venue. (Apart from a couple of Poole fans and although the journey time is similar, the actually route is a horrid one compared to the gentleness of the M40 and M1) Just thought I would throw in that observation.
