Anyone going to the Festival of Speed at the weekend?

I usually go on Friday's with the free tickets from the Sunday Times but this year will be there on Sunday since got fed up with not having a grandstand seat which may be a good thing to have this year since the latest weather forecast is rain!

I'm going on Sunday, courtesy of my future Father in Law.

Best behaviour mode engaged. ;)

Any MB Club types around that day?
 
Would love to, being dragged off to Ascot on saturday instead with girlie as I was in Le Mans last weekend, anybody else going to Ascot (im not stealing this thread btw)
 
Can't make this year. Whatever you do go EARLY.............last years the queues to get in were sole destroying. And that was on the Friday.

Have fun.

Lunch recommendation: Murphy's tent last year had live band and a Pasty bar opposite.

"I'm in heaven, I'm in heaven....etc etc etc ":D
 
I'll be there on Saturday. I had the freebie Friday tickets last year, but we decided to splash out for a weekend ticket.

Last year, the queues were worse coming out than going in if I remember right!!

No Ascot for me this year. Let's hope they sort out some of the queuing disasters I experienced there last year.

I'll be propping up various bars (and occasionally watching some rowing) at Henley Regatta this year however. Anyone else going?
 
Had drunken idiots joining my train home at Ascot this week. There was nearly a fight last night when a large guy who was standing there being fairly obnoxious fell (hard) onto a seated woman as the train moved off.

Would love to do Goodwood FOS one year.
 
Been there most of the week on build up of some stands, having the weekend off.. some good stuff around
 
St.Lewis hamilton is there isn't he? Apparently he's running a stool handing out Spanish omelettes (bitter after taste)
 
Well we'll be heading down in the morning - keeping fingers crossed the weather holds out.

Had to walk far then.....:D (sorry couldn't resist!)

Our neighbours walked past the station yesterday due to the 5 deep crowds - I went to pick them up and the spectacle of drunken women in high heels and hats was just laughable. I'm sure the blokes were just as bad, it's just they weren't in high heels.....

Oh yes - I've got tickets for today too..... no I'm not on a Gooseberry I'm in the office:mad:
