far superior to a bench seat on a ferry! I can imagine you could get a very comfy night sleep in an XM chair...as what they really are, arm chairs.

Think I might pop along to this

Shall I bring the XM or the X1/9, or both

Excellent Be great to see you there..

Both if possible please but if only one then the XM...

Damn im up against it with this show.....The traction avant job i have booked is the weekend after on the 14th! That would be two weekends in a row without seeing much of the missus and kids and some big mileages as the traction is down south too....If he cancels then ill come down, if not then ill have to pass.

Im not having another year like 2012 when almost every show clashed with something!

Can someone post a calendar up so i can plan the year in advance around shows

I have the same here vince.. I specifically tell people I don't do weekends else I'd never see sarah.. So used to do mon to thur and Friday was car day then sat and sun family time..

But as we see.. My own stuff never gets done..

So, looking past the current wintry conditions, this is two weeks today!

I'll have to get Alan to have a word with his friend's in high places again...

If the weather was so bad that the grassed area was unsuitable then I am currently in talks with Burghley regarding an area of hardstanding right outside the house...

Updates to follow as and when...

On other forums they've got a list going of people attending, so I've just had a look on here and constructed a quick list of those saying that they're attending...

Good to see you've made arrangements for the weather Franklin. Do you have snowploughs on standby?

I've a sneaking suspsision that there'll be a good attendance of XMs this year Jim.

Oh yes, this will be on standby:

Excellent Franklin It's amazing what a Visa can do.....

With one of those on standby the weather wouldn't dare be bad...

I'm really looking forward to this, and started to get everything prepared this morning that I am being over for people.
