:lol: far superior to a bench seat on a ferry! I can imagine you could get a very comfy night sleep in an XM chair...as what they really are, arm chairs. :D

Damn im up against it with this show.....The traction avant job i have booked is the weekend after on the 14th! That would be two weekends in a row without seeing much of the missus and kids and some big mileages as the traction is down south too....If he cancels then ill come down, if not then ill have to pass.

Im not having another year like 2012 when almost every show clashed with something!

Can someone post a calendar up so i can plan the year in advance around shows ;)

So, looking past the current wintry conditions, this is two weeks today!

I'll have to get Alan to have a word with his friend's in high places again...

If the weather was so bad that the grassed area was unsuitable then I am currently in talks with Burghley regarding an area of hardstanding right outside the house...

Updates to follow as and when...

On other forums they've got a list going of people attending, so I've just had a look on here and constructed a quick list of those saying that they're attending...

1. C4 By Loeb - Franklin
2. Project X (hopefully) - Franklin, piloted by Terry
3. CX - Patrick
4. XM - Matthew
5. XM - Russ
6. XM - Will
7. Xantia - Chris
8. XM - Jim
9. Xantia - EddieNuff
10. XM - Jaap
11. 407 - Robert
12. XM - Jason

So that's so far from on here, which is promising! The more the merrier though - apologies if I missed you out, or if you're not planning to attend. Feel free to copy'n'paste the list and add yourself to it.

Few more details for you:

Arrival from 9:30am please!

Cost will be £5 parking for each car.

Prize-giving for awards will be at 3:00pm (or before depending on weather etc).

2 for 1 entry to House & Gardens on production of CCC Membership card.

For info, below are the attendance numbers from last year - can we beat them?!

BX - 26
Xantia - 19
XM - 13
CX - 9
Others - 16

Hopefully there'll be more XMs there this year..

Good to see you've made arrangements for the weather Franklin. Do you have snowploughs on standby?
