Ground isn't too bad it's a bit wet at the minute but was reasonably solid earlier.

Excellent - wifey says we ARE going, even if we can't really afford it.

We will be in the wife's Vectra-C as it is cheaper to run and newer - lol

Just going for the Saturday afternoon, to meet up with friends from here, Vectra-C.com and Opcomusers.

We will be looking to go for Disabled parking area, so where are the rest of you going to be?...
Or should I just look for a large clump of Cavaliers ?

Hopefully taking loads of pictures whilst we are there - particularly of the 80's stuff - hopefully not chavved up.
Astra Mk1, Cavalier Mk2 and the lesser seen stuff like Monza's and the like.

Look out for the 70s pornmobile; white Monza GSE cabriloet... pure white leather interior... dash... carpets... trim... bloke who owns it always has 'simply the best' or similar blaring out of it as he does his lap around the ring of fame. he has a tasty 'tache too (white of course!)

Im supprised it was open in the first place , only a coup[le of weeks ago it was flooded and weve had more rain since and more forcasted, I think anything thats due to be staged on grass this year will be cancelled as the grounds will be soaked and if more rains forcasted not take a lot for water to come to suface causing flooding
