Default Camping at Croft - roll call!!!

So who on here is camping at Croft tonight or tomorrow?

I am and looking forward to it!

Leaving my place at 3am tomorrow, so will prob be half asleep for the evening social, but hey what's new! I'm always half asleep! 320 miles trip to get to Croft, but totally worth it!

Yep, look forward to a bit of a social with you and the other very northern crowd!

Nige is coming along too, in his Jap Crap - will be a race from Yeovil to Croft, round Croft both days, and Croft back to Yeovil. Bumper to bumper all weekend I hope

Legend, you get the first 5 hour stint (which should see us there with me sleeping the whole way )

Cool, we'll be easy to spot. 2 brothers arguing over who's Evo is the fastest, parked next to a large tent! And Chip will probably be wearing his distasteful black shirt with the flames all over it!

Will deffo say hi Sarah, perhaps show you folks what you're missing since binning off that perectly good Evo 6 you had

Beers, oh yes!

Given that we're from deepest darkest rurual South West England, we struggle with the Brummie accents. Get up to Derbyshire and it gets even worse. Talking to you and Andy again is going to be a real problem! Oooh aaarrrr

Have a practice at this accent, this how we speak:

42 seconds in - that's where we hail from!!!
