Perkil8r Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Are there any plans to make it a night time thru to early morning session? I'm considering a late night early morning somewhere, this could fit the bill nicely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perkil8r Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 Right then..... Just spoken to Mark at Cottage Farm Camp Site. With the Tuesday 5th June being the Queens Jubilee Extra Bnak Holiday he can't really offer a discount. However, he does say he has plenty of room for tents without power hook up @ £15 per unit per night. If you need power or require space for a caravan he will need to know sooner rather than later so he can allocate you a space. (I forgot to ask about price for that but he didn't say it was more...) The site is on Orby Lane PE24 4TR and has a bar, showers etc etc... Phone number is: 01754 872598 if you ask for Mark and tell him Mike at EDS Motorsport put you on to him it might help, and if we get enough interest he might be more willing to help out in the future maybe? <<<< Just a thought? If he know's where we all heard and hence the reason for going, he'll know how much business we are putting his way if you follow me? Anyway, that's all I found out. It's a friendly place and family run. The owner is Mark Simpson who is a good friend of mine and current f2 stockcar world champion, so for me that makes it perfect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Fluke Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 (edited) Good work Mike. Are you going to be staying here then? Anyone got a tent I can share for the night? :)Will split the pitch costs with you! Edited May 10, 2012 by Fluke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perkil8r Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 (edited) I hadn't realised that the Tuesday was a bank holiday, I might be working, so might end up arriving very late, just in time though lol Edit: Looking at it, I will be working in either Taunton or Stoke on Trent, Both of which I should be done by 5ish, so might be there as early as 10pm lol Edited May 10, 2012 by Perkil8r Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Fluke Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 Whos still going? I've booked the Tues & Weds off and have my pass off of the wife lol Anyone else plan on staying at the camp site Mike's suggested? 3 weeks to go so time to firm up some plans!
