Yep, starts Thursday. The gates officially open at 3pm, but that's for everyone, not just the general public, so our stand won't be ready until at least 5pm.

IF YOU ARRIVE BEFORE THEN, YOU ACCEPT THE RESPONSIBILITY OF HELPING MYSELF, CARRIE AND MIK SET UP! ;)

Me and Celina will be there for 3 :)
 
I'll be bringing my work toolbag, tape measure and all :) You guys sort my H&S officer gear then and I'll not let you down :)
 
nah, if we can convince Jen to come she has a shovel she keeps in her car so thats the snow risk covered
 
I used too keep a full spares kit (dizzy cap, rotor arm, ht leads, jump cables, bowden cable repair kit, hi vis jacket, oil, coolant, brake fluid, gearbox/diff oil, a small tool kit and a large bag of fuses and tin foil) in the spitfire. All I have in the micra is a 10mm spanner for when the clutch tensioner winds off again (i'll have a locking washer or loctite with me when it happens one day haha)

It's OK everyone.... my hair isn't that long any more! :D
 
*Shudders*

My dad brought home these fantastic big white foam ...beam...things that say "Do not Lean on the cars"
...apparently they were from a Rolls showroom LOL

I'd probably have one on my dash and another on my parcel shelf...my paint may be crap but I wouldn't want any more scratches LOL

ETA: I know...paranoid, but I'd claim it was for Health and safety reasons, of course :p

...although anything about pistons, gears and lamda sensors may well go over my head LOL
I'm a trim and aesthetics kinda car girl :D

it's just...really far?....although not as far as I went to get my car... Hmmmmm....

You'd be in one of 2 huge fields surrounded by thousands of people, some of which are marshalls. Believe me when I say there's no danger to a lady on her own. Plus, pretty much all the MSC guys would protect you IF the need arose. :)

Why not just make it a day trip this year so you can see what I mean. :)
