Re: RRG 2011 Gloucestershire,Prescott Hillclimb 21st august
Is anyone planning to camp on the Saturday night? Looks like only the "overflow" campsite 14-odd miles away is available now, but Jon and Speedy have posted about camping there. We had quite a little gang 2-3 years ago...
Edit: Do we have a confirmed roll-call of cars? How about a stand? We have until the end of tomorrow (Friday) to apply.

Chris
Speedy
Jon
Theo
Filthy?
Dakary?
a.l.2810?

Me and a mate are camping at the overflow Saturday night. Me n speedy are on the Area 52 stand, might be a little late to pull out.

What's the deal with the A52 stand...I presumed it was just for locals / regular visitors? I guess you guys might fit that description!
I can always just go in the main retro parking area.
What's still to do, Chris? TurboJet runs now, btw
cheers

Quite tempted - no Volvo content here, supposed to be meeting friends for lunch - but RR Gathering sounds more fun....

Wahey! Just booked camping. That was the easiest booking I've ever done!
"Hi, would like to book camping for saturday, for RR" "Yeah ok, whats your name?" "jon" "ok, that's fine, by!" How bookings should be done!

Looks like I'll put in an appearance too, although in my Mercedes 500SEC as I don't have a suitably retro Volvo.
Thhhhpaaayyynetah, you could always bring the Gaymobile as that would qualify. Don't be such a Brummie, 'twould be good to have the old guard there despite some of us not having retro Volvos.
