I have just had a mail from the hotel there are 7 rooms left in the Chainbridge( I dont know if they are doubles or singles etc), but I have now reserved 7 rooms in the Wild Pheasent just incase :)

Everyone has requested a river view! With the routes that Gary is planning everyone will be leaving at dawn and getting back at dusk so no one will see the view anyway!! :lol:

wasn't asked if i wanted river view or not. from experience with DDK events we will spend such little time in the room it dosn't really matter about the view.

Sorry I am very late to the party. Although wanting to come I didn't think I would have a finished car to come along in. However with the recent purchase that has changed so I can now definately make it :blob5:

Noted there are a number of us from the Miudlands making our ay there on the Friday. Thought struck me that we could organise a few 'start points' in regions to allow groups to meet and a travel there as a group.

I know that Helen, Ian_UK and Tom are all going from near to me so could meet North West Midlands en-route ?

Just a thought.
