Just spoke to the factory and this is the absolute last chance to get on the trip.
Have I missed the boat?

My plan would be to fly out on the Monday (12th) and fly back on the Thursday (15th) or Friday (16th). I have checked the British Airways website and booking a flights plus hotel deal won't be a problem.

I would need to book the time off work but, again, that won't be a problem.

Wish I'd seen this earlier! If there's still time and space put me down, would very much like to go on this!

Ok so next month we'll organise looking into hotels. This is optional and it may be easier to have small groups

Those driving?

Those flying from stanstead?

I'll be looking into city centre again.

I can only ask the question but they get booked up and were asking me if anymore were coming as they were meeting booking constraints.

I'll be driving however the Mrs is disabled and has a blue badge so will be looking to get into the town centre as much as possible.

Also on the day I will have up to 5 spare seats when we head to the venue so with the other drivers hopefully we are covered for transport.

Cool thanks it's about 15 mins outside the town, I'm sure the seats will come in handy.

Many thanks for asking...and even more thanks for getting the perfect response!

I've received your PMs but unfortunately I'm not allowed to send any PM's yet so can't reply. Could I trouble you by asking you to email me on jonathandoran@me.com please? I'm keen to get this all wrapped up.

Thanks again

Jonathan
