So, where are we staying then, Shifnel or Telford?

Its getting fairly close so we could do with booking so as to avoid dissapointment....

Yep good question, what are folks arrangements?
I happy to go with the flow. Be good to find somewhere where we are not too far apart?

What about the Days Inn just off the motorway? It is in a passed post, its relitively close and would be ideal and its cheaper than naughty nells.

Paul  :y

that's where i'd go if i were you tbh, it's only about a mile from shifnal.

i've got a 2 room tent if anyone gets desperate for some where to kip ;D

Will there be any point in turning up on Sunday? Don't need anything doing but I would like to see the ins and outs of the V6 engine as I have only had the 4 pots. Working till 4pm Saturday, so can't make it then. Was hoping to have a chat about this at J.O. 5 but due to other commitments I can't make that one.

The possible offer of shed/awning accomodation ( if we found a suitable field) is now a no-go for me I'm afraid. Can't get out of working that weekend .. :(

I won't be jealous ... promise ..  :'( :'(

What time on Sat please? Booked friday off work to enjoy a lunchtime drink so ok to drive Sat.am. Will valet as many as i can on sat. Will there be time to tech2 mine? Dunno how long this takes. As said would appreciate a more knowledgeable member taking mine out for a quick thrash (best doing that on your own) just so i know if owt needs doing soon.  Also busy as i'll be with valets i'd appreciate a quick blat in a 3.0/3.2, i'll be drinking tea all day & can produce ins. for other vehicles or am happy to be taken for a drive as a passenger if you don't want me to drive your car but i want to feel first hand the difference between the 2.5 & the 3.0/3.2. Not top end just acceleration, mid range pull.
     Cheers, Guy.

No need to bring the car then, you can walk that, and still have a beer :y

Why not all requote the list of attendees with where you are staying

Any one got any plans for the Sunday?  More work or heading home?

i might pop down again sunday just to be annoying :D

i went down shifnal earlier and there's not as many b&b's as i thought, there's nells and a place called the gallery about 3 doors up.

apart from them there's the park house hotel(which is very expensive iirc) or the hotel on the services.

I think most of us are staying at the International Hotel Telford. I am hoping now that funds permitting I will be staying the night at the International (thank god I can cancel if not without charge) So hope to see you all there. Hopefully I can be first in? ;) ;) If not I can wait till my turn. I am bidding on a V6 timing locking kit so there wiil be another kit  to use if I win it.
