Still £ 32.00 at the Premier Inn. I just booked, which is far more organised than I usually am!

Hi Folks Pat & I are also booked in for the Sunday evening. We have a family day up in Huddersfield during the Sunday so probably wont need a meal during the evening but i wouldn't recommend eating there, last year it was appalling......... :mad: Hotel is fine :D Stu

Unlikely to be driving at Donington as it's immediately before we go on holiday, but am coming up to meet up with some of the old crowd - those who made MGoT possible, and possibly bag a few pax laps. :cool: I've booked the Premier Inn but, similar to Stu, uncertain of arrival time due to an earlier commitment. For those not at Donny, catch you at Silverstone the week before :)

[b]Donington Track Day[/b] I have a health problem which is temporarily stopping me driving, as a result I have my room at Premier Inn going spare! If any one hasn't booked yet let me know via private message and it's yours for the £32 I paid.

Hi Peter Sorry to hear that, have you let the powers that be know so they can try to resell your place? John Dignan is the day manager [email]JohnD@MGs-on-Track.co.uk[/email] Also i would suggest you edit you post and just ask people to 'private message' you, it's probably not a good idea to post your home jelly bone on open forum Hope your back behind the wheel real soon Stu:D

[b]Donington Track Day[/b] Hi Stu, Yes, I have emailed John D and I have altered my contact as suggested. Many thanks. I hope to be back on track at Goodwood (should have been there this weekend!!)

[b]Donnington Night Before.[/b] Myself, Roger Davison and Martin Holmes are going for a meal at the Indian Restaurant in Shadlow ( approx. 10 mls from Donny )on the Sunday evening (6/10/13.) If anyone else would like to join us please let me know by Thursday 3rd Oct. so that I can book a table. Cheers Trevor Leighton. :)

Would have loved to join you Trevor, with Roger and Martin - but really sorry I really do not like Indian Food I can't even bear the smell of it :eek: I know I am in the minority :D

We are going to eat at one of the Country Pubs yet to be decided;) so if anyone would like to join us either for a meal or a drink, they would be most welcome as Stu has said the food at the Premier Inn Restaurant was dreadful. It is such a shame it seems to be a common problem that the food is very poor at the eating houses ajoining the Premier Inns.

We have often gone to the Otter at Kegworth and had a good meal [url]http://www.vintageinn.co.uk/theotterkegworth/[/url] it's about 15 mins away from the hotel Stu :D

As above, I've got an earlier commitment on the Sunday, but should be at Donington by 6:00 at the latest. Happy to go with the flow for the evening but, like Fran, would prefer non Indian - if anyone is happy to include me in their guest list ;)

Fran
Well I think The Otter at Kegworth sounds fine, we can blame Stu if it is not :D have to find someone to blame;) let's be honest it has got to be better than the Premier Inn Restaurant. So I am going to say that we are going to book a table for dinner there at 7.30pm if anyone that would like to join us please let me know for food or just come along later for a drink. Mike would be very happy to include you in our guest list as we don't have any guests you can be first:D

Oh Steve are you trying to outdo McDonald's will you be taking your white linen table cloth, candles and cutlery. Might be nice to add some flowers;) If they ask you to leave (or maybe they wont they might like to be seen to be kinder than McDonalds) come and join us at the Pub:D
