Spoken to LangTall this morning. DfH are on site and shock of all shocks, the ACO have actually been very organised and all the pitches were marked out and numbered before they opened the gates this morning! :o
DfH are (and Team JPC will be) near the track up near the Porsche Curve exit!

Latest update from The Liverpool Boys.
They too are now on site. Bleu Nord is similarly well laid out and marked up with little pegs confirming each pitch number.
Unfortunately the girl on the gate had only been given half the map so couldn't tell them where their pitches were, but they've found them now!

Hmmm,

From what I've heard from the Liverpool Boys and DfH, They haven't reported any problems.
LPP says there is about an inch of water around the "lake" in HA but nothing drastic. Glorious sunshine all day today so if it carries on like that it will be gone soon!
Someone on Beermountain has said there are problems on Technoparc woth flooding. No first hand experience yet but LPP will nip over there and check it in the daylight tomorrow so I'll post an update when he's let me know!
