Once we find out that we'll all have adjoining pitches we might think about getting organized, e.g. like putting all gennies in one place so the noise of these will be restricted to one area and other things, just a thought.

We'll be there too!
Didn't the MB lot organise an site genny for everyone to use a couple of years ago??
Perhaps we could do the same on BN and split the costs amongst everyone

That depends on being close together. I think it's all numbered.

Last year was number pitches, but even the organisers could not work out where was where.  Even argued between themselves on the numbering system.

May be different this year

It is all numbered and Andy said that they will all be together as much as the ACO layout allows. He'll supply a site layout once he has one.

In addition, he has also said that he'll happily sort this again for us next year if it all works out OK this year, hopefully taking out the worry and misery that most of us, particularly those with larger groups to organise have seemed to suffer at the hands of the ACO over the last couple of years.

Well I'll be dipped in dog sh*t!

My ACO allocation has just dropped on the mat - 6 x Blue Nord! - however, I've already sourced sufficient tickets for BN from elsewhere.
They've also allocated me 8 x Sommer and 8 x Lagache tribunes.

Customer number - 18*** / 154***

Don't do it, just too dangerous! It took me years to built up my reputation as a responsible, respectable consultant - but if my customers would see me at LM that reputation would be gone in seconds... ;D

We did organise a genny, producing 100 kW of power and cheap diesel to run it on,  only a low humming sound, having said that, you would need a truck to bring it down and we do not have a big enough group next year to supply or bring it along me thinks. One could look into getting one locally, Bas knows some people who can organize it, give him a heads up if you want this to happen. Provided of course everyone is relatively close together. That year at MB there were no numberd pitches and we secured space for people coming late. So the lines were relatively short and power was in abundance!

Do we have any idea of total numbers.... This is going to be huge!
Rather than the who, where and when spreadsheet we just need How many and when.
I would do it but am far too busy at work to do it ;)
