Hi all,
I've just received my ticket for the national but alas won't be able to attend on the day, so if anyone wants a spare ticket please let me know, you can have it for a fiver inc postage, no point in it going to waste.
Cheers, Nidge, Rugby, Warks

As you all know,the National this year is being held at Brooklands. The West London Region are hosting it and we had our "Planning"meeting last night in the pub(best place) ;D We are pondering over what sort of numbers we may expect through the gate on the day. Who's coming from the Forum? Big Kev. We are - but not in a Rover - by invitation We are still coming, but not in the vehicle we first thought of, but I hope it will be of interest to members and forum members, eh, David ?

Yep, Zaphod and Doreen will be arriving in a rather nice silver Lexus. Having been a passenger, it really does live up to its reputation. Well worth a look on Sunday - it should be in the display area for other makes alongside my SAAB 9000 Anniversary - Rover still isn't finished. .

PLEASE NOTE THESE ENTRANCE DETAILS:
The Museum opens at 10 am and closes at 5pm. All entrants to the rally must enter through the Gallaher/Campbell entrance which is off the B374 Brooklands Road NOT the “Brooklands Museum and Mercedes-Benz World” entrance, as directed by the brown signs, as there is no vehicular access to the museum site from this direction.

Electrical problems sorted just in the nick of time so hopefully will be there. The only downside to it is I ricked my back picking up one of my car ramps so its very painful to even drive a car at the moment.
