Any other videographers would be much appreciated!

Mine can but I never have, I always concentrate on stills.  :ashamed:

Well still bring your camera hedge. We need photographers with skillz

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

chungster, bring your camera. I don't have skills hence not brining my point and shoot.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

Er, someone bring a skateboard. I'm planning on using one along with my tripod as a crude dolly... my brother has a skateboard but it's been in the garage for a couple of years so I don't know if it works :S but dolly shots would look great.

Well,  I am suffering from Man-Flu or some sort of virus, but hopefully I will be up for it in the morning. Trouble is, when you are ill, its always the mornings when you feel the worst.  :sick: :sick: :sick:

If I come or not, we all need to make the effort to get some group photo's of all the cars together. Should be a good gathering.  :happy2:

Definately up for it. But I don't know what the parking is like. Have asked previously in the thread but not had a response off anyone.
And hoping that even though we may get there at different times can we all park together or move the cars to be one big group?!

If I bring a spade, we could dig our own bog trenches!  :grin:
I hope you can build a good dam too - when 'urgency' calls, I've got more force than a Barnes Wallace implement being released from the underbelly of a Lanc!  :ashamed:  :rolleye:

Around 9-10am arrival. But some may be arriving after 11am.
Uh - OK.  So quite a relaxed agenda.  :happy2:

Without wanting to read through all 20 pages (it's Strictly time) - do I need to aim for any particular car park?


I've made adjustments to the Revo settings (B7T5F9) but haven't had a chance to test it out properly (too much traffic earlier on). So hopefully will be able to trial it properly tomorrow.
Have fun! :happy2:
