I've had a reply from Critch about the possibility of a group booking ...

Their group discount policy seems a little odd -- Car and driver get in for free, passengers pay -- if I'm, reading that correctly?

EDIT: I think they may be assuming we're a qualifying (pre-1980) vintage car club, wishing to drive through the the village. I'll ask for clarification.


Anyway, it looks like we need to pre-book, so I need numbers ASAP please

Dear Mark

Further to your enquiry below, we have a provisional booking for another car club on that date, but I have contacted them to ask if they are going ahead. I will let you know the outcome.

In the meantime I attach some information. It does need to be pre-booked and if the club are able to stay on site for a minimum of 3 hours, we offer free admission for the vehicle and driver and group rates for passengers, which are currently £11.50 for adults and seniors and £8.00 for children aged 4 -1 5 years.

We would need final numbers of vehicles and passengers by the Wednesday before your visit.

I attach the information you need prior to visiting. As you are aware we have to make changes to the way we normally operated due to Covid-19 and the information is in the guidance notes attached.

Regards

Amanda Blair

I wonder who the other car club are ...

I nearly had to borrow a pushbike but common sense prevailed.

Could do getting some advice from you too about whether I install a mesh WiFi or go with a wired network in the new place.

Looking for connectivity for general use, TV/Movies, security & CCTV
