I managed to manevour things so that rather than heading back to Thailand and Japan once a get back from NZ I'm going to head across to Europe for a couple of weeks. And I've given myself a bit of a long weekend before heading back home. And that happens to be the weekend when goodwood festival of speed is on. The coincidences are just astounding :)

So, anyone going this year? Anyone up for a beer at some point that weekend? Anything I should know/do/not do/not miss etc?

Dinner Saturday night? I've had a look at the tickets and Saturday is sold out so I'll probably come across from Belgium on Saturday afternoon then do goodwood on the sunday

And last night I realised I'll be there for Le Mans as well. Quite a brilliant piece of scheduling I think. :)

OK, got my tickets for Le Mans and Goodwood.

For Goodwood I could only get Sunday but if I can get a ticket off ebay or scalpers or whatever I'll grab it, if the UK guys know the best way please feel free to chuck in your knowledge. What I'll probably do is catch the 8:00am train from Brussels on Saturday morning which gets in 9:00am at St Pancras. If I manage to get a ticket I'll head down to goodwood (train most of the way then get a car probably) otherwise I'll do something in London. Saturday night I'll spend down goodwood way somewhere (looking at the available hotels that might end up being gatwick which is a bit tragic) so I can get their at sparrow fart on sunday and be at the gates at 7:00am. Stay back in London on sunday night and catch the rain back to brussels so I can catch the afternoon flight home.

All a bit hectic but I'm excited :)

Greg - really sorry we failed to arrange meeting up this time, but trust you're having a great trip regardless. Saw a yellow Cayman GT4 there btw!
