So whos coming and where are you staying?

We had thought about camping so any ideas of where to stay ( Jim? Frank? any reccomendations? ) and maybe we could all camp together ( oh err...... ) :lol:

Hi Balmy,
I will be at the IOW with my Wife and camping at Ninham Park in Shanklin.

I am there for about 5 days this year :wink:

I know of a few that have said they are staying at Ninham Park. Those that stay in hotels are all in Shanklin (Hope Road, Queens Road, Park Road etc.)

If anybody needs running repairs over the weekend please take my number with you, we don't want any breakdowns =)

Jim and I are going to take the TC's out one evening to come up with a road run from Robin Hill to a lovely old pub called the Wight Mouse where we normally have a meal after the show.

On saturday afternoon as and when people arrive I think Andy W is getting the beers in over at the Channel View Hotel...! LOL. Probably be from 1 onwards.

Can't wait! I think we are expecting about 25+ cars ! !

It's on Park Road Sam! Apparently a little birdie says that Air Force One is making a return to Marina Fest!

If I make it over this year I will most likely be camping so I might need my Little Welsh Dragon to guard the tent!
