When the tours start again in March, there will be as rumoured a small charge.
Basically its £3.00 per person, or £30.00 for educational establishment groups(school/college etc)
The reason for the charge is to cover expenses of the tour bus, equipment, refreshments, and the literature/CD packs. The good news is that part of the cost is going to WhizzKidz charity.
Hopefully, there will be developments on a merchandise operation, but thats still not showing any signs of happening yet.
Attendees can fill in questionnaires as to what they think of the tour, so maybe suggestions about MINI gear for sale might help.

I was surprised they didn't charge before - £3.00 is still a bargain ;)

Please can you add me + 1 as a reserve - can turn up with pretty much zero notice.

Thank you

might have to cancel... :( (chris might have to get a lift with rakey or someone then or we have to change cotswolds arrangements :rolleyes: )

reason is i'm having to start working full time a couple of weeks before and i need the thursday off that week because A level results are out (OMG) so i very much doubt i'll be able to get the time off...

was really looking forward to it as well :( i'll let you know for definite nearer the time, just registering the doubt here... :rolleyes: ;)

pretty sure i'm going to have to pull out of this... only starting full time at work a couple of weeks before so i think it might be a bit cheeky to ask for time off! :( sorry aiden, i think there were a few reserves though?

(<---- too lazy to check first post :p )

still coming to cotswolds though, wouldn't miss it for the world :D

AidenL

hmmmm leave me for now and i'll see if i can find out on saturday :confused:

trouble is the rota probably won't be out till the week before, which is a bit late to leave it, so it might be a bit kinder to give up the place to someone who can be sure... but wait till saturday's verdict please ;)

We are the reserves for this. If there are two spaces available I think we can still make it :D

AidenL
Jun 23rd, 2004, 07:56 AM
Daves spaces are available now, so that should sort you out then? :) We'll see how the rest of the list goes when people start confirming - at this stage, i'd say some people have forgotten about the tour? :eek:

Anyway, good opportunity to let you all know about the SCNM piddle puddle run, located near Poole and Bournemouth, Dorset.

The more the merrier.....

Nope Ian, no bumping, all above board here........ :confused: I did forget to add you at one stage, but will correct the priority sequence now - I think we should be able to fit the whole reserve list on anyway..........:)
