Title: Sillystone MGP
Post by: Millhouse on July 28, 2015, 10:21:44 AM
Thought I'd see about going along this year to get a bit more deaf.

Almost died when I saw the price... £80pp General admittance!!!

They can FTFO, I'll be watching it in the comfort of my front room with the volume up!!

Full VIP treatment again this year for Dicko and I, and our delightful ladies.

I'm very important, you know.

Opposite end of the spectrum, camping with a few of the usual suspects.

Think we got an early saver but can't remember and don't really care, what price for a weekend with mates, beer and bikes.

I'm down to marshal again which means one free ticket, general admittance roving grandstand I think.
I'll be there Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Early am to collect ticket or evening at end of play Friday or Saturday.
If you want the ticket Millhouse you are welcome to it, you get first refusal.

That's a very kind offer sir!!

As it turns out Mrs Millhouse (who I thought may want to go) actually doesn't. So I'll have to respectfully decline.

Thank you ever so much though...

No problem, thought I'd offer it up though.

If anyone else is interested let me know.

PJ, Do you have this ticket or does it still need picking up off Snozzeltoff?

It needs to be picked up from Snozzeltoff fairly early tomorrow before he enters the track. 7:30am or thereabouts. Early but worth it for a free ticket!

I went last year and he provided me a ticket kindly so I met him a few miles away from the track and collected it from him, I feel bad I now can't go!

I'm back, fed and watered and have just checked my emails.

The ticket does need picking up but yes it is 1 free and there is an allocated seat in the Stowe B grandstand that comes with it.
I have learnt that I can leave the ticket with the security box at the marshals campsite so you could collect it later on from there.

If you want it shout up between now and 6am.

Also a spot today was a campsite just before the marshals campsite, it's in a field but it's only £10 as opposed to the silly prices, especially tomorrow.
This campsite is here:
