I'm expecting to be there in the usual spot for the 3 days. It would be good to say hi.

Was on the Trundle Hill that overlooks Goodwood yesterday. Preparations look good. We were treated to two Spitfire aerobatic displays FoC.

Weather forecast around Chichester indicates some rain over each of the three days. Let's hope that's cleared through before the start.

Have fun!

Hi all, I'll hopefully be camping at Goodwood too, from Friday. Boating over from sunny Guernsey. Blue +2 silver roof. Reg 1305. Not sure whether to move car from campsite to parking area, any good suggestions where to park? Kev.

Get yourself around the charidee shops mate and try and get one of those velvet bouffant caps that were the rage with the arty types of the time. That'll set it off perfectly. You must get a photo or two too. I'm sure you'll look Buff!

Very Colin Chapman and a bargain compared to this!

I'll be there Sat and Sun along with an old school mate hosting 3 French chaps who we see at Le Mans each year. Unlikely I'll be in my Elan as I only have this weekend to put together the assorted parts and get it road worthy, and still waiting for some bits to arrive. Next year may be.

Now its all out for the Moustach!

What are the french chaps names? I might know them!

I'll be parked down by the bottom fence in the campsite. We'll share cars to go over each morning to the pre reg car park. I must say that if you can't get into the pre reg I'd probably take the bus

If it`s cold, Goodwood is the ONE place in the UK that you can wear a fur coat.

I am dressing up as a "country" gent with a triby, cravat etc. Try not to laugh! My wife is going in a fifties get up all hand made. She's a mean dressmaker.

Looking forward to it - just fitted a new boot seal from Sue Miller. Maybe I can get the boot lid to sit down properly as last!

Cheers,
