Sundays are usually the best day...and although I have a tent, I have only used it once, at LH last year, and can say, Me and camping are not natural bed fellows.

Alas I shall be in sunny Falmouth for a family commitment.
Enjoy the rally guys. I will be with you in spirit if not in XM!

Was that last year? It was only a bit of rain and to be fair it did stop by the time you had finished putting the tent up, if its any consolation you looked like you were in your element.

I'm thinking of coming. Would be nice to see some more XM's. Also, I'd like to take up the Lexia offer. Took car to Chevronic Centre but they didn't have the right cables for an early XM!

A Blink Code Reader is all that is required for an early XM.
