You would be very welcome David. Hopefully details of next years National will soon be posted, and then we will know what dates to avoid.

Thanks Mike.

More please. Although it might seem that next year is still a long way off, it's not. Remember, the campsite for next years MOT in France is already booked, and people are sending in their applications.

Now is not the time to be so laid back that you're horizontal :roll: :wink: :lol:

July sounds good to me!

And it almost sounds like the g/f might come along... though she did mention the dread words "hill walking" and "Helvellyn"! (sp?)

I noticed Andrew has posted that the National is likely to be the last weekend in June, so what about having it either in the week running up to the National and we all end up there together or starting it on the Monday after when lots of us will all be in the one place and already have our camping gear with us! This way for me I only have to pay one return ferry crossing :D

Still no confirmed location, but I got the impression last year that it was going to be further south in 2009.

i must admit the lead up to the national or after seems a good idea, would be cheaper on petrol for a lot of us, or just me :D :D

Unfortunately due to all of the sort of accomodation we would have preferred on this years French MOT being already booked, we shall not be going. But looking on the brighter side, I will now have more time to devote to this years MOT-UK.

Any one want to do it that same week, i.e. Saturday 23rd to Saturday 30th May 2009? :wink: :lol:

Please count me in, although it initially seemed like 'boys only' :lol:

Would prefer to go when the weather might be ok as will be camping. So, Autumn is my less desirable time.

I don't mind the location.

Thanks for arranging this.

At the moment it seems that most people would be happy with the May dates, is that right?

It's not definite yet Jay, and I would like a lot more input from interested parties really. The only reason this is now an option is that we cannot get the accomodation we want in France. Apparently it's all taken :(

As the May dates coincide with the MOT and I can't do that due to another commitment I'd say July.

Sorry should have said I'm interested first ;)
