Also Arthur + Mrs Arthur although were struggling for Hotels at the moment. Please advise if there is any available options. Or if any one cancels
I'd recommend the "Bear With Rooms" hotel/inn which is just across the road from the Castle Inn and has already taken some overflow guests
Contact Number for them is - 01550 721777

Thanks - amended. We are nowhere near last year's figure yet - we had 32 A8 and S8's at our meet last year which is the most we have ever seen, so still some way to go!

Can I just ask am I welcome to attend this meet or not ? If not then please remove me from the list but either way nothing is clear at the moment and as we're only a week away I need to know if I'm cancelling the hotel or not.
Thanks

I'm going, you're very welcome from my perspective. Nothing I've read suggests that you won't be, in fact all comments have been supportive.
