Brian Friday morning or later afternoon is good for me. Will be over with Kevd at some point early afternoon. All the stuff is at mine in the shed. 
Dazza - if you want to pick the tent up just give me a shout. It's pretty big though. i had to fold the seats down in the fiesta to fit it in.

I've retired from BBQ on tour duties
Karen & i will be taking a picnic with us
Are there stalls there to buy tea & coffee from ? ( without walking to far & queuing for an hour ) Or is it best to take a flask or i may even pop the stove in for a fresh brew @ ESC base camp

I'm sure that the usual franchise wagons will be there, plus a few extra hopefully.
PM me your mobile Brian & I'll try to let you know what it's like during Sunday - if the queues are awful, then you might just get enough warning to stock up from the services en route?
Just a little reminder that the A2 Dover bound shortly before the circuit is a favourite mobile camera spot - the excitement of arriving better not prove too overwhelming.
Cheers, David

After a 12 year absence from our shores, The European Rallycross Championship is back, and the opening round is at Lydden Hill in Kent. This is not to be missed by any motorsport enthusiast, as it involves the fastest, closest racing I know. 650bhp is the norm.
Marcus Gronholm and Henning Solberg are rumoured to be competing amongst some others tbc.
Murray Walker.
