Got my acknowledgement letter today too, so termie's block booking on the test day obviously didn't get lost :D

Bob, the acknoledgement letter doesn't give details or a camspite allocation already, it's just an acknowledgement of your booking. So, it's still nail-biting until beginning of next year, then we will see which site we get.

Yeh I know that. I just want to know which site the old reprobate has applied for now he has tasted the "Verdant Green Pastures, Sandy Tracks and Lakeside Views" of Gods' Own Country. Or Houx Annexe as it is known to the lesser mortals on MB

Actually, HA was my choice also in the 80ies and 90ies before I became an EXPO Regular

Well, I've actually applied for two lots, one through the ACO channels and another through other channels for two different campsites.  One I'll know i can get easy, the other is a bit more problematical  ;D

But you do realise JustTickets has some weird conversion from Euros to Sterling? (1:1 instead of 1:1.46 :-\)

Same here - acknowledgment dated 23 juillet, postmarked 25-07-07 received. Expect further action "at the end of the year."

Thanks termietermite - couldn't find the original thread where you asked us to post updates.

I sincerely hope the fact that Termie ordered your tickets doesn't mean that you are going over to the dark side :(
