Barry has accepted the challenge of pulling this together for us. Please help him by filling out your availability for the weekend below. Also let me know if you'd like me to put your name forward for free tickets via the MGCC (one day or weekend). Strictly speaking it is a one day ticket if you are working half a day and a weekend ticket if you are working a full day, but I think we can probably accommodate all committee members who need tickets. Barry - Bob - Dave - available Fri, Sat and Sun (weekend ticket required) Jennie - Neil - Rob - SteveC - SteveH - unavailable (on hols) Tim - The stand will be very similar to last year - display boards with photos (loads courtesy of Jonathan Lee & brothers), signage and video (also courtesy of the Lee brothers.) We've decided to run a prize draw for North Weald, also as last year - one place to be awarded for Sat and one for Sun. Failing anyone's ability to provide a Plasma screen, I'll bring my old PC monitor again. Neil is probably able to reserve the display boards, as last year, but can't get them to Silverstone on Friday. If Bob is able to get the RAF ones and transport them on Friday this may prove easier.

Hmmm, Bit of a shocker I'm afraid. As mentioned elsewhere I'm now on a course at very short notice and although it's only over at Benson (a mere 45 minute drive away) it is pretty full on content with a full timetable from 8am to 5pm every day. Plenty of coffee breaks and the like but it means I won't have much opportunity for "other" jobs over the next month I'm afraid, simply because I'm not at my usual place of work and am having my working day dictated much more closely than usual. I certainly won't be able to make it for the Friday either and already have commitments for the Saturday. I'm sorry to have to say it but Silverstone is looking unlikely overall for me this year and I can only apologise. The course was all a bit short notice and only comes round once a year so I had to be seen to be jumping at the chance :(

I'm not sure if we'll be able to attend both Saturday and Sunday currently although that was our original plan. If we do attend both days then we don't mind a couple of hours each day on the stand.

Tickets for Silverstone should have reached everyone by post by now. Mine arrived last week. Barry - how are we doing on the rota for the stand? [size=2][/size] [size=2]It looks like I'll have my wife's car from Wednesday onwards, this coming week, as she is on a school trip to Barcelona. I've emailed Neil to see if I can pick up the display boards and any other artwork he has from him. That should mean that I have most things for the stand. The only thing I'm not sure about is the table cover. I can't remember who said that they had an answer to that.[/size] [size=2] [/size]
