Okey dokey. Another limey is on the plane! Thursday 11.40 on BA from Gatwick, returning Sunday 19.35. So, all I need to do now is sort out camping gear, transport to the circuit and dust off the falling over trousers. See you all soon  Nobby - you're on the same flights as me and as I booked a fly drive I will have a car waiting for me at MCO. If you want to hitch a lift with me and Bob you'll be more than welcome. Let me know. Dx |

Doris,
That would be fantastic. I was talking to Bob today infact!
What are you doing with regard to camping gear, are you getting it there, taking it with you or is it being supplied by our good friends over there?
Cheers for now and thanks for the offer.
Nigel.

I am buying a tent and camping gear over there as most of my tent equipment needs replacing. Are you camping with Turn 10/JPC/Me/DfH or are you with Steve/Gab/Smokie/Pidge/Martini

Team Pidge looked after us very well when I went last time in 2005 and is located on the quieter part of the campsite areas. Pidge and Gab knock up a supurb breakfast BTW. The Turn 10 guys are hosting DfH over in Green Park at "Turn10" This is considered as a no one sleeps area! Myself and Mark JPC will be staying over they as we are accompaning DfH for the early part of the week too. As for camping gear I am sure that people will be able to assist you. Camping gear is easy to get in the states and is sold in most wal-marts. Just decide where you want to stay and it will all sort itself out. |

We are acquiring extra camping gear as we speak.
Many people have volunteered extra gear, but we are not sure of the total.
Some people are buying tents, some may bring their own???
Can we figure out a total # needed, and any other basics that will be helpful..
They can easily be provided by locals and fans.
Cheers

MiCarr,
Can I put my hand up for a tent of some description? That would help.
I will bring sleeping bag and matress, no problem.
I imagine that anything else I need (food, beers etc) can be sourced on site?
Thanks for the help.

I think Doris was planning on staying with DFH, JPC, Rick and Turn 10.
@ Micarr, probably best if you can aquirre some tents, but do not worry if you do not have enough, I will bring my sleeping bag and if need be buy a cheap tent at Wal Mart. I saw one that sleeps 12 for only 99 dollars. It'll all work out fine somehow.

The other thing that has just struck me, is that it's St. Patricks Day on the 17th March.
Woo hoo !!
Is it possible for the party to be bigger than it normally is?
