Thats Me Booked. Silverstone 2012.

I have a car charger for my video camera and mobile phone.
I will have a few spare AA batteries with me for my radio so I can listen to the commentary.
I will just put fresh ones in my LED head torch and LED lantern before I go.

Just realised I was wearing my Mclaren T shirt that I am taking with me. Oops, in the washing machine this morning

Torches! How could I forget torches? Problem is whenever I go to buy a little torch I always end up with some 3 million candle power one instead...

chreden, not sure why that is a problem, sounds like something any man would do.

Probably went for Mini & bought an E-Type....sounds like something any man would do...

Must get to a race this year..

You dont need to pay £65 for camping. I camp at Windmills (just behind Copse- one of the nearest campsites) Its about £12 a night per person if my memory serves me right. Its basicbut Ive been camping there for about 12yrs now and its fine.

 

[Greenlantern101]

You can't book at windmills its first come first served. And as race cub says its £14 per night.
The official silverstone campsite is £65 ( £60 if booked in advance) is for the whole weekend Thursday - Monday

If youre camping at Silverstone Woodlands the wet weather plan has now moved to RED please read the following carefully http://ow.ly/c0vDm

Thanks Bro. So no cars near the tents looks like we will have to squeeze in a sack barra.

Have a great time guys, this was what the Isle of Wight festival looked like

Hmmm, the met office forecast isn't as favourable. http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/public/weather/forecast/?tab=fiveDay&locId=400002

Safety car? Delayed start??

 

[Jen]

No spectators, 'cos they can't release their feet or wellies from the mud!

 

[Jen]

A huge thunderstorm here now, adding quite a lot more water to very soggy ground!

 

[Greenlantern101]

Packing is done, we are off at 7am tomorrow. See you on the other side.

p.s. is it anti-biotics they use to treat 'trench foot' ?

 

[Hamberg]

No I think they just chop it off. Enjoy!

 

[Jen]

Amputation, I believe Greenlantern101

 

[GeoffP]

Have a good one - camping in two foot of water on not I'm still jealous!

 

[Jen]

Drive safely and have a brilliant time. Wave at any cameras and mouth 'CTA' before 'hello Mum'!
