We need to sort out tickets to take advantage of pre-booking discount prices. We can take money at the next meeting and send off a single cheque with our club stand application form.
Camping is a must if you can make it! Great laugh last year.
Interested members so far: Emma & Andy (trading) + James Dave & Wendy (Dave has his car on the 500 stand) Jason, Justin, Tim & Lyndi are going but will probably put their cars on the Tiverton stand this time. Suzy & Alex Jamie Ben Andy M Mike Vicks (possibly)
Please add your name if you want to join in. It would also be handy if you can say if you aren't coming so we don't need to chase you to see if you need a ticket!

We could take a similar route to the last couple of years, and if we leave a touch earlier, can visit even more Cotswold pubs !!

Graham is checking with his boss regarding leave. Jamie is in similar position; checking re hectic work schedule. Mike Bond is unlikely to come as he'll just be coming back from a family holiday. Newbies Vicky (blue clubby estate) and Zac (yellow GT) are having a think! Steve and Alan are definately up for camping. Paul Huish & Kevin Macey are letting us know later in the week. Ian Wyatt & Dave may also be coming, and will let us know.

ANNOUNCEMENT
For those of you at MU meeting last night, you have heard the following. For those not there:
I spoke with Mini Magazine yesterday regarding our club entry. The Event Manager informed me that Minis Unlimited has been black listed due to our behaviour in the campsite last year. There were several complaints about the mucking about with the clubby estate and loudness late at night. We have been warned that we will be watched, and if we misbehave we will not be welcome in 2007.
This is a very serious warning and many people at last night's meeting were shocked. I personally am embarressed and feel very awkward at such a ticking off.
We can all still have fun & a laugh when camping; just keep loud and lively behaviour in moderation please. We see and hear plenty of inconsiderate numpties at these events, and don't want Minis Unlimited to be considered unsocial...
For example after 'lights out' when the disco/entertainment finishes: Don't drive the cars. Don't belt the stereos out full blast. No rowdy singing or shouting. Plus no piling up the barbeques to make infernos.

I for one am taking this warning seriously as I was heavily involved in the Clubbie surfing last year... The Strongbow cannon will be let off once or twice in the evening I suspect !!

I need to drink copious ammounts of strongbow in that case! Also if anyone is willing to bring wheel ramps or a trolley jack even better - adjustable firing angle!!! ;D

I think that from the health and safety risk that we HAVE BEEN WARNED ABOUT STUPID ANTICS that the strongbow cannon should be kept to a show in the future, NOT this one. Mini Magazine are not kidding. Yes have a laugh and a joke, but keep it tame on this ONE OCCASION please. If you are unable to do that on THIS ONE OCCASION please don't bother to come. P.S. Both Vicky Osborne and Vicks are coming too now, plus Mike Waterjohns ;D

Hadn't thought of that... I guess we'll save the cannon for another day.
