Sounds like a plan Dominic hopefully the Ayrshire contingent will meet up earlier and see you at 10am at Drivers :thumbsup

Im afraid I have no time for the man, great drive but in my opinion he is just a rude old man. Was very nasty to my mum when she worked at gleneagles and i dont like people who are rude to my mum. :(

Thanks... I'll be there for 1000.

On another matter, are books available on the day?
If not, then WHSmith are selling hardbacks with 50% off till Sunday.
I think it is instore as well as online...?

Hi Guys,
Just to clarify, they WILL have books for sale at the garage and apparently they come with a DVD 8) ...before anyone asks I don't know how much they are so if Del can get them at 50% off then that would probably be hard to beat but I'm not sure if WH Smiths are doing the DVD with it. (anyone??)

I would seriously consider being there for 10am or earlier as apparently this has been mentioned in the local press and it could be mobbed. It would be a shame for you all to turn up and not get near the place and I don't want you all kicking my arse for this at East Fortune next week.

I've also been told he is on a tight schedule and will be leaving at 11.30am sharp - presumably to watch the Grand Prix in the pub - what time is it on anyway??

So you may want to make your Drivers meet for 9.30am or earlier...just a suggestion mind.

Hope you enjoy yourself on Sunday and watch the front of your cars if you are taking them into the carpark on the hill beside the garage - its quite steep. Crunch. :cry:

Cheers,

John

If it's the triple world champion biography DVD I have had a copy for a few years and was going to bring it to be signed anyway. I'll pick up a copy of the book in the town center tomorrow. So how's about bringing the meet at drivers forward to 0915?

I don't do mornings, but for the chance to meet JYS for however briefly I can just about do it. :D

It will be easier for me if people want a copy, email me at

----- removed - BB is working!

before 1400.
This is in case RBS have re-blocked this bulletin board.

I will phone WHSmiths to confirm and reply individually.
