yup ste's still got mine from last year so he'll be bringing that, feel free to fetch charcoal and use it for all your meaty cooking needs

Can I cook a cow on it?

Ian · **Posted:** Tue Jul 21, 2009 10:50 pm

Probably best to do the cow in burger size mushed up bits.

We'll bring some charcoal.

Have you got your generator Rick? How long are you planning on running it, shall we just bring some petrol money? I will charge of mains whenever I can.

i've got a genny, and a 20liter jerry can which should easily run it all weekend, so if you want to use it, just chip in towards petrol, i might run off mains too save the car battery for emergency power

Okay that sounds good. Funny that I need petrol to keep my electric truck running.

Glenn, what do you want to do about the mower, let me know if you want me to drop it off at yours before the weekend.

what time will everyone be aiming for arriving friday?

Rick · **Posted:** Wed Jul 22, 2009 3:57 pm

i finish work at 1.40, home, finish packing car, shower ect, then set off, planning to get there before 5 to get the beers open, and a start on the grass and stuff i'm going to bring a strimmer/weed whacker, so we can cut the long stuff down and use the space right up to the fence if it turns out ok.

Ian · **Posted:** Wed Jul 22, 2009 5:11 pm

Jo's working until 3, we'll probably leave between 4-5 and do the best we can with traffic, so I'm guessing arrive for 6ish.

Ste · **Posted:** Wed Jul 22, 2009 5:38 pm

I'll try to aim for the same time is then. If we're using up to the fence guessing we'll have the rostrum on the field side?

Cover op required to steal more fencing to expand

Rick · **Posted:** Wed Jul 22, 2009 6:11 pm

that's what i was thinking, it should save climbing over the fence all the time too if we get the rostrum right up to it, and tywrap the fence down below the top of the rostrum, ste can you also grab andys 12v battery charger

what time is best to turn up each day? for those of us not camping, donna ready to drop anytime now so camping is off this year

Glenn · **Posted:** Wed Jul 22, 2009 6:45 pm

When our hangovers subside........

Ste · **Posted:** Wed Jul 22, 2009 6:50 pm

well, gates open to the public at nine, so expect a fair ammount of traffic from then onwards! I'd guess at us getting set to race somewhere between ten and eleven maybe?

Rick, I'll try to get andys charger if I pass that way, got mine anyway

Rick · **Posted:** Wed Jul 22, 2009 7:09 pm

more like 9.30 if we still plan to get some crazy races and an hour endurance race each day, and still some time to wander around the show
