I hate sand. I still have about 2kg of South Africa in a bag from fitting a towbar. Rear chassis rails were half full!

I'll be there on Sunday - green hardtop

Do you think they'll let me drive over and park with you guys or will I have to park in day visitor parking? Either way I'll pop over to say hello.

Sadly I'm not going to be able to make it. I have a meeting Saturday morning which I can't get out of and its hardly worth coming all that way for one night. My ticket is in the for sale section at a discounted price if anyone's interested.
