After going there in October my SantaPod days are only going to be between April - September.
Too bloody cold/damp and you spend half the day or more sat waiting.
Hope to hear of some news from today though?

I counted at least two fords that closed it. One was the white escos which sprayed the entire quarter with coolant :/
Who's was the fantastic white s2 which did that ridiculous burnout later in the evening? Sounded like a warzone lol.
