I can now announce that I will be present at Salbris Just need to book the ferry.

Yep, I'm excited too. Should be arriving late afternoon, early evening on Tuesday. New set of wheels and Michelin x's on today, and rubber bonnet straps.....

The CB channel is a good idea, what about 22? I've had a look at googlemaps and there are 4 supermarches near by. The new world meeting newsletter that's been posted out says that access to the site on the opening Tuesday will only be allowed from the north to prevent traffic problems. Just encase these restrictions are already in place by Monday afternoon (probably not) I thought it seemed best to meet in the Lidl that's near town. It's easy to find as it's pretty much just off of the N20 coming into town. I can't really remember how to get to the site from town though!

Whoever's up for an epic gate party (which could possibly be crashed by gendarmes, leaving us with nowhere to go!) should see what they think is best too and let me know if you have a better idea of where to meet. If not, I'll see you all at Lidl some time in the late afternoon on Monday 25th July!! Only 21 days away!!!!

Just so you're not waiting on your own for 24hours in Lidl....the site doesn't open until Tuesday

Ferry Booked SeaFrance out at 8:15am Monday 25th and return Sunday 31st at 7:50pm, £65 using 2CV promotion.

Same crossings as me (and £6 cheaper ).

It's ok, we're arranging that meeting point and time so that we can queue outside over night and have a queue party.

Oooops!! See you in the queue, Richard.

Do we actually need out ticket to get in or will there be a list of paid on the gate? I just cant find my paper ticket

Front page of the latest info bulletin says (in red, bold capital letters)

DO NOT FORGET TO BRING YOUR PRE-REGISTRATION CONFIRMATION WITH YOU

so maybe you'll be ok, but I wouldn't hold out much hope.
