Anybody coming to help from t norf

If you plan on coming to help, and you want to look at a stage plan and say I would like to go there to marshal, please be quick, you may be too late, but you never know.
Offers of help to CM via website or to me @ farnborough2@aol.com thanks.

For sure there are a couple of the guys from up here coming down to marshal. Not certain if they are doing 1 or both days.

Are you going to point and larf at me on the Saturday, along with my other 'friends'

There was enough pointing and larfing at me last year when I entered the sprint. So why should you be treated any differently!

yes me and my mate are coming down to help, but i think just for the saturday as my marra is being cohursed into helping some old geezer and his son do the rally on the sunday.

Saturday is good, as that is when they have problems, Have you let Pete know?

So there should be a lot of pointing and laughing on the Sunday then

not yet, but andy as gave me his number so i will phone him today and let him know,

We have an unforeseen problem, if you have put your name forward to marshal, can you please contact farnborough2@aol.com or s.castle@virgin.net as at this time we do not have access to the lists. We do have some names but not all, please bear with us we are working to sort things, thank you.

Counting down now, number 36 on the rally. How did we get that seeding???

You must be good
I am number 11 in the sprints, on a good day I might end up 11 from the end, when it's all over

Good luck to all you competitors off to Abingdon this weekend, would have liked to have been there myself but too busy silaging.
Hope the weathers good for all the marshals and spectators too

Advanced party(me and the Mrs.) about to head south with the main body(Mitch and Ryan) of troops following later. Wish us luck as you wave us goodbye!!!

just checking out the maps and getting packed, waiting for my driver Mr Mitchinson to come and pick me up, this could be fun, it's a bloody long way down to abingdon, and there are loads or roundabouts, we don't like roundabouts, but hey its a weekend away.

Good to meet you all.
Hope you liked all the bunting we had out for you, and the street party on both days

hello Avalarf, i quickly talked to you on Saturday night out side the beer tent, the weekend was brilliant, well worth the 5 hour drive, just a shame about the accident, if possible could you let me know if there are allright,

This was the last we had from Barry last night, there could be an update later, after all the equipment has been put back in store. We didn't leave the site till about mid day.

Just to put everyone's mind at peace the incident this morning was dealt with efficiently and effectively. Whilst there were some serious injuries none of these have escalated and the parties involved are receiving medical attention at in hospital. I would empahsise the condition of those retained in hospital has now been downgraded to medical attention.
