Hello people,
It's back. The best run of last year is now in the process of being put together.
Hotel
The Hotel I have selected is the Travel Inn in Chicester, its just of the A27 so is in the perfect postion.
The Link to the Hotel -
Premier Travel Inn Camping
This year I am going for a Campsite as well as a Hotel for those a bit more adventurous, I believe that this is a much better idea and a good way to enjoy the sunshine that we will no dought get
The Campsite is called Southern Leisure Lakeside Holiday Village and is in Chichester just of the A27 (map at the bottom of this post).
The price for tents are as follows:
£12 per night per tent plus £2.50 per person (children under 4 are free). The size of the tent doesn't matter so I'd suggest we get a huge tent then we only pay £12 once
(anyone got a marque
)
Phone the number below to book for the sat night and book as early as you can as it could get busy that weekend.

The Friday Night - We will be going out for a few bevy's on friday as a few people are going to be staying over that night as well, click HERE for more info and chat The Saturday - The Run-
The meet point will be at the Goodwood Motor Circuit at 10.30 for a 11.00 start, The cars will leave in two groups, the slower group will go first followed 10 mins later by the more spirited drivers
. The run will take us up though Goodwood and around the best roads the South Downs have to offer. The run will have 3 stops, two 15 minute ones and a hours lunch stop at the Oving Village Hall (pictures below of the same stop last year). The Run will end back at The Goodwood Motor Circuit at around 4.00.
The Skittles Evening -
After the pub we will be heading back to the campsite/hotel to get ready for the evening entertainment and we will start meeting at The Gribble Inn at around 6.00.
The Gribble Inn is in Oving and is a traditional country pub with real ales (they even brew them on site
), good food and even low wooden beams to hit your head on
.
They also have a skittles building next to their brewery which is where we will be spending most of the night, the skittles building holds up-to 50 people has one lane, tables and chairs and it's own bar
.
We will be organizing two teams nearer the date which is likely to be SCNM vs The Rest
There will be food as well, already in the included in the price. The food will be a Buffet which will be eaten in the skittles hall as not to halt the fun.
Food - There will be a buffet laid on now as they have lost thier main chef, but the cost has gone down by £1 to £6.95 per person
Price = £6.95
The price includes -- Hire of the hall, our own bar lady
and the food. The money can be paid for on the night however I do have to put down a big deposit, I also have to have your, when you have decided can you please pm me, the earlier the better.

Have a lye in (one thing that neaver normally happen's on run weekends
)and get rid of your hang over or just chill out for the morning. Then at 12.00 we shall be leaving for a run up to a pub/resturant somewhere in the South Downs for a good ol' sunday roast. Then people can leave at there leisure for a nice afternoon drive home and for a change get home quite relaxed (well I know I will
)
