Currently ticketless but covering bases just in case the resale on Sunday is successful..🙏 I have always stayed in CV East and have had the room to put up the full awning and pitch a tent (per the image) Would this be allowed in Bath & West or are they a bit more uniform..??

you are a good man @Crazyfool01but are you allowed to gift the tickets on..?? I thought in most cases the tickets went to you and a guest? October Drift on Monday btw.... so if i am left miserable on Sunday, I will have something to cheer me up 🙂

Thanks @dizzymoo it is very much appreciated… I am in Group 12 and would be happy to share details on Sunday (my daughters & BF’s are in Group 11 and I can be called for those also…) Great to have efesters willing to help!

you are sitting round a digital campfire here my friend.....

Jaded... the perfect sentiment. Of course I want to go but the whole ticket getting process just has me wanting it to be over and done this weekend, so I can move on... I had a great run from 2007 to 2019, that I always thought was down to my organisation and preparedness.. But (assuming the worst this weekend) missing 2 out of 3 will definitely have me moving closer to a "cant be arsed" attitude..

👍 A repeat of last years conditions would be a dream..

So, budding meteorologists out there (or professionals).. we are only 5 weeks away.. What's the latest forecast.?

Im with you... This is the one stage announced to date that i dont think I will be visiting (apart from a beer in Cockmill at some point)

I got my co-op card but havent been out and checked the store yet... Its about 8-10 miles away.. I must admit I am confused about this whole receipt thing.....

I have 2 spare for October Drift at Portland Arms in Cambridge on Monday 22nd April… (my daughter and her BF are heading to NY the following morning and have opted out) if you are in that vicinity and never seen them, they are great value and always absolutely give it their all.. tickets were £12 but happy to take a beer in the pub beforehand.. DM me if interested

Yeah... I would go back to blaming one of the dogs.. Either BiCarb or Soda.. they will both be forgiven

the virtuous Yog is never far wrong...!

If she has a cat, lock it in the bedroom.... Then when you go up later... "Oh no... Tiddles, what have you done..?"

Quick question on B&W… can you have an awning and tent pitched alongside your van the same way you would in CV East..?

I would listen to anything if I could get a ticket in the resale.. but (imagine if i do)...

Fleet Services on the M3 on the Monday is like a refugee camp for the great unwashed... I imagine McD's & KFC have record takings on that day

Good... I just got a Co-Op card delivered... Off searching tomorrow/Saturday

so, the Co-op comps... do you have to use the Co-Op card..???

I have to say in my 11 stays in CV East (starting in 2007) i have never had reason to complain about the entry & exit.. Even the 2016(?) massive pre-fest soaking that meant they delayed CV entry at the last minute and had huge queues on the roads for hours was handled as well as it could have been (shuttle tractor pulls getting campers on site from the road & emergency use of B&W..) The entry, considering it uses the v narrow Pylle Road, always seems super efficient to me.. and the stewards are nearly always friendly and have accommodated when we have arrived in (near) convoy.. I would be interested to hear your specific issues The exit, down the same narrow lanes, is never going to be quick when you have hundreds of vehicles trying to leave around the same time.. to your point either leave at 6am or queue

that field is not an option its not for general use, its eavis' friends and disabled. Pedantry Corner Sorry Neil... That quote wasn't actually me.. and I think you took the OP's quote out of context.. He was talking about distances of individual CV Fields from PGC.. Not whether he had stayed (or attempted to stay) in them.. He had 'Not bothered noting the distance of CV21 to PGC because its only a minutes walk..'

btw.. the distances on the way back are somewhat longer as you weave your way up the hill...

Nice.... (but you know someone is going to ask you to do the same for across the road...??)

I may have met her last year.. A friend (on her own in a small cv) had obnoxious neighbours... A very helpful lady in charge helped us move her to a nicer spot 👍

Only just seen this… Well done on the return.! I have October Drift in a couple of weeks , which will be my first since knee replacement in February… it survived the madness at Stamford Bridge last Thursday, which was the first football post op… keep up the exercise.!
