Tuner GP Donington 17th Sept

**V70Man** · Monday 29th August 2005, 17:05

I can make it in my 2000 V70 T5 Manual.

I may have to bring the two boys (13 & 6). If that is a major drama I will see if I can get a baby sitter for the day.

My kids are as good as gold so that's no problem. In fact it will probably just be the youngest so it will be fine.

Jack (my 6 year old) is one of these "Faster Dad, faster!!" kids, he loves cars.

Would love to make it, but I'm away that date I'm afraid... wish I could be there as this is definitely an event worth supporting!!!

Generally have to be there by 9am, leave by 4pm ish, you dont have to sit on the stand there will be plenty to look at as it's a massive site.

**Vikingxl** · Monday 29th August 2005, 22:47

Anybody got any accomadation advice as i could well not bother going home between here and the other meet next day?

**Vikingxl** · Monday 29th August 2005, 22:51

Also just in case i do stay somewhere is anyone else interested in a meet up after Donington for a few beers and a chat?

**TangoDeltaSierra3** · Monday 29th August 2005, 23:43

Well lets see how the numbers go for the meets, theres a new pub/hotel opened in our village, family oriented too, also a village pub which has a couple of rooms to let too, only about 5 miles from the Sunday venue off at J37 of the M1.

If any one wants to make a Saturday night of it in Town it would be cool i guess seeing as i got the weekend off now.
