Where : BN (although not in the enclave!), ACO grandstand.

When : On and off throughout the week depending upon my fitness and whether or not I am still incarcerated.  Certainly I'll be installed by Friday night.  All volunteers to push my wheelchair around will be gratefully accepted!

Who : Team Eric, numbers not confirmed yet, probably 8 or 9 of us. 
Confirmed: Me, Tim, Rob, Neil, KatY.
Probable : Mike and his passengers still owe me for the camping ticket so are not definite yet.
Still not made their minds up: Richard, Mark.

What : If we get them back on the road in time my Quantum2+2, my brothers 'not quite standard' VW Caddy, Rob ???not bought it yet??? Le Mans fun car, and Mike in whatever he's driving now (I haven't a clue). All to be confirmed in May, but we have back up cars in case the 'preferred' ones don't get re-assembled in time.

Out - Wednesday 10th 05:55 Dover-Calais, P&O

Where - Camping on MB.

Back - Monday on the 12:25 Calais-Dover (I think...can't remember what time we booked now, must check booking before we go!, but usually go for no earlier than 12)

Are we the most un-organised bunch going??? Easter and two bank holiday weekends to get the cars put back together, plenty of time!!!!  ;D

Look forward to that m'Lord. If thou art around the area of the lowland Houx site at any time twixt arriving at our race track in France and the Saturday night poo bar scenario thou art most welcome to join us for mead and such like.

We are ( with thy lords pleasure ) pitched at space 930 and 4 others in the humble community of Houx.  Thursday evening would be a good time, not too late otherwise the carnage will have set in and speech may be a problem !!!!!!!

Forsooth Sir
Thank you for thine kind invitation.
As it 'appens, Guys and Gals, I am going to be domiciled on Houx this year as I have accepted a kind invitations complete with tent and air bed, from Bas, kpy et al. The other lads have chickened out this year (tight southerners) so my plane / train / tram combination gets me to Houx mid afternoon thursday. I'll make a point of popping over as long as I can find some way of stopping off at a supermarket en-route for supplies.

5 weeks, 2 days and counting!

Fabulous M'Lord please do come on over. We also arrive Thursday afternoon. 

Chief alcohol officer reckons we're open for the dispensing of guest drinks from circa 5pm onwards, which gives us time to get pitched up, Carrefoured up and genrally on the way to getting pi**ed up.......oh dear, here we go again.

I suspect we'll even throw in some charcoal that a few hours before would have been meat !!! (We burn everything on the bbq. If youre lucky Andy will knock the bbq over and demonstrate his fire walking act....again!)

The Reduced Team Zarse  >:(

Just me and Paul this year, back to basics time. No Commer, she lays amouldering still. Not heard a thing from Steve so potentially no Gimp either.  :) Chris Z has teacher exams, Bob's skint, and Posh Pilot Zarse is attending but staying with Mrs Posh Zarse and the official Aston Martin party in some fancy chateau. He's still coming across to see us peasants on the friday though and to cook our curry. Which is nice.

Travelling in the Ford CMax LD Lines on Wed 10th afternoon, arriving about 9.30 on Bleu Nord

Will be pitched up in CA Central Park, probably near the Brethren as russ has arranged our tix.

I know I said several months ago that I would compile a definitive list of all CA campers. I hope to complete this by the weekend.

But I have been subject to the UK economic situation, ie. unemployed. There are therefore more important considerations to be taken care of for family, find a job etc.

A thread is showing those camping on BN based on a grid. With those camping elsewhere, there is no grid/layout.

I will endevour to complete a spreadsheet completed by Saturday.

Nice on mate, very useful for finding eveyone. Thank you......however, I appear to be on Maison Blanche and Houx at the same time. I'm good but I'm not that good!
Good of you to do this though especially as you are going to be absent. We all owe you a beer.
Perhaps this is something that could go in the CA Guide next year.

Mi Lord,

This has now been corrected, (bowed on one knee) I beg your forgiveness.

It would be great to get it included in the CA Guide as long as members post their details early enough.
