Thats Me Booked. Silverstone 2012.
- Thread starter Greenlantern101
- Start date
Yeah, 20% chance of a shower...Well they said it would be sunny last Sunday and it rained so I'm turning up with a rucksack full of all eventualities
Jos the Boss, conspicuous by his failure to comment.
Up at the crack of dawn tomorrow. Already had some bad news regarding a flood in the hotel I have booked for Saturday. My room is now unavailable. Typical. Looks like water is already doing its best to **** this weekend up for me :-/
Just one green tent so far then?We're there now, tent is up in the exciting world of zone C. Was sitting in the sun (!) for a while. Not muddy around the tent yet.
So if anyone wants to meet up I'm in the green tent in zone C.
I must say; rain, mud and Code Red warnings or whatever, I'm really missing being there (couldn't afford it this year).
Me & my brother would ordinarily by now have got the tent set up, 12m flagpole raised, Flag of St George hoisted & we'd be setting off on a stroll round the camp site with can of Kronenburg in hand.
Roll on 2013 (if I can save enough pennies)! For now, to all who are there, have a great time; I'm with you in spirit.

Any weather updates?
I don't know how many changes of walking boots/wellies I'm going to need.
Silverstone have advised us to pack a picnic in the car to have while we queue for the 'car park', doesn't bode well!
If it weren't for the fact we've bought the tickets & the atmosphere is usually so fabulous I'd stay at home.
I'm not over optimistic we'll even see any F1 cars if the weather bods are right - if we're lucky we'll bump into some fellow CTA members and put the F1 world to rights.
Methinks a swimsuit may be the most appropriate attire tomorrow...

I have returned. Wasn't too bad getting out of the campsite, once we managed to turn around. Will post a fuller report soon, along with some selected pictures from the 1000 odd that were taken (I took a rapid fire approach to taking pictures, looks like some actually turned out OK).
