I've had further confirmation of our booking at Critch now

Parking:
Quote:
I have had signs made for your car club to go on the cordon tape.
They need to drive past the Admissions building and they will see the cordoned off area straight ahead of them.
And just to reiterate:
You'll need to give Admissions the group name (A8 and S8 UK Owners Group) and password (Quattro) to get the group rate.

Additionally, I'm told "you will need to book a timed tram ride ticket on arrival" (assuming you would like to have a tram ride of course!).

I know. Looks like we're going to be lucky. The forecast a few days ago for this weekend was heavy rain!


That'll be because Neil's coming. He's in charge of weather

Aye - possibly even dry enough for a rust-prone Fiat to venture out for the day

Thanks Andy. And thanks for letting me know.
Hopefully we'll see you at another meet in the not-too-distant future.

Good luck with the sale!

Anely and I are still planning to come to Critch, but not the evening meal as we need to head home. Might have to bail last minute, but that is the plan at the moment
