I fancy, as didnt make the last one.
No idea how plausable workwise and moneywise ATM though.

Stand?
or just attending?

Do we have a plan as a group?

If we get as many people interested as last year, a stand shouldn't be out of the question - I'll most certainly be taking the GLS

We will have the 4 cars required to make a stand, so yes.

I'll be along and camping. It's hugely better if you can camp, it's always a good atmosphere at V3M camping holidays and this is even more amusing as there is a million more randoms!

I'd be interested in camping, I'm a festival junkie anyway so I love the whole getting pissed in a field and talking to random people for hours.

Just noticed there is a "best stand" award this year. Considering the range of cars we had there last I reckon we'd have a slim hope!

Hmm it seems I'm going away to Cornwall the week before and come back on the Sunday... but Somerset is on the way back and I'm tempted to take the 360 on holiday, probably wouldn't be able to get there any earlier than 10am though
