Just a few snaps I took of our stand. Tricky to get everyone in!

@alexp999 how was the traffic in this year??

[alexp999]

I joined the back of the queue from south at about 7:15, was in just after 8am, so not too bad.

I don't know how the others found it?

Got out of bed @ 06.15, joined road at Towcester roundabout @ 07.00, skimmed the queue until the slip road and photographed entering @ 07.22 [emoji41][emoji16].

I imagine traffic isn't much of an issue when you can just stick those blue lights on though?

Actually planned originally to bring the work car but the clutch is cooked again.
Possibly the gearbox is lunched as well.
It was the other driver honestly [emoji848].

Ah god it was too hot for coffee.

Next year I'm bringing a event gazebo and plenty of camping chairs and a big enough plug in fridge for drinks, if we have a club stand next year 😞

@Stoney871 was talking about having one of of them for next year.

There is a bit of faff involved though. The club has to have public liability for it and some forms have to be filled out to basically free the event organisers of any liability.

So it can be done, just needs doing with the club management, or you could be asked to take it down if it hasn't been pre-cleared.

[Stoney871]

Aye, a nice shaded communal area would have been nice.
Alex & I discussed the same thing.
We'd need to complete a risk assessment form prior to next year though.
