I will be arriving on Monday morning. Are we up for a Tuesday night whisky club again H as I beleive its my round and I don't wish Sav shaking an empty bottle at us again mouthing a load of expletives. I will be entrenched beside The Liverpool Boys as I was last year.

Are you confirmed on the Sunday night Pompey-Caen boat Stu??

I think thats the one. I don't do the booking bit, I just pay the money.
But an offer of a few beers always brightens up my day.

I hope you a very small person Paddy  ;D otherwise nobody will get to see the track once you have that flag up!!!  ;)

Out of curiosity, how much did it cost to have a flag like that produced??

jpchenet>> I have my own lettering company, so I am my own sponsor ;)

the real figures>>
huge buildingworks cover, 26 Eu
16 metres red vinyl, 80 Eu
28 metres white vinyl, 140 Eu
3 metres blue vinyl, 15 Eu

totals 261 Eu, took me 8 hours by myself

if you'd buy this at a shop it would be about 750 Euros :-\

by the way, I stand 5 foot 10 (?) 185 cm, normal average Dutch height :)

Paddy_NL, stupendous!

I hope that doesn't get away and land on HA! Or on second thoughts, if it did it would save us all taking tents.  

Brilliant

Nah, it's never supposed to be a flag, but more like you described it. It's gonna hang between the scaffolding, the Gazebos and the truck which brings all the stuff. So it's gonna be horizontal, more for cameras from heli-coppers to catch a glimps of. Heineken has been notified by email today, counting on some flags and gadgets at least...

Paddy, that's one cool banner!!!

Stupid question time!  We'll be errecting Chateau Piglet on MB on Monday morning.  What are the chances of being able to get the car out during the week?  I've camped on Houx previously so getting the car in and isn't a problem as the roadways are defined, are we likely to get blocked in on MB?  I don't want to park the car too far away as I tend to use it for secure storage.  ??? ???

Shouldn't have a problem at all, roads are all well defined and grass areas seem not to be to deep that you end up with no route back to the road..
