FridgeFreezer Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 I'm aiming to be there. Should be a good one! For those who may be wondering, the forum donation means SLRC are pretty much running this at cost bar a few stray pennies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retroanaconda Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 I'm hoping to attend. Is there a deadline for booking? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FridgeFreezer Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 I'm hoping to attend. Is there a deadline for booking? I believe there's a 2-3 week deadline for postal bookings, simply because we have to wait for cheques to clear. I don't know what the deadline is for PayPal bookings but I'd imagine it'll be more like 1 week before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FridgeFreezer Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 Would there be an Interest in "Commemorative Event Clothing" I'd be interested I was going to ask if the A&M team had any plans for additional fund-raising activities at the event, if we can make it a big forum get-together then that opens the way for a few extra-curricular bits and bobs.

No but if you e-mail Chip (SLRC webmaster) I'm sure he'll be able to sort you out, especially if you need designs for clothing as he's an arty sort of fellow.

FridgeFreezer Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 I've just started a thread in the LR4x4 Matters forum for ideas for other stuff that we can do at the event - both for fun & forums funds, either on-site or round the campfire. Fund-raising ideas and whatnot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJB Serenity Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 Sorry to sound totally thick, I just want to make sure my truck is allowed, but what exactly qualifies as a rear recovery point? Would a typical rear tow bar suffice? Or do I need to add anything to the rear cross member such as swivel eyes? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
