magister Posted July 21, 2008 Share Posted July 21, 2008 A few questions from a loton virgin 😬 I am considering camping on Friday evening - are there any facilities? 🙆🏻 Info seems to suggest that the gates are closed at night - any idea what time this happens? What time do they open in the morning? Thanks PaulB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leadership Team Mcalvert Posted July 21, 2008 Leadership Team Share Posted July 21, 2008 Hmm, would be interested in the answerre the gates shutting at night but can confirm that at least 4 of us (Shaun & Gill Elwell, Tam Calvert & Myself) will be there on Friday, plus no doubt loads more From memory last year (did not camp that time) there are portaloos but can't picture much more... See you Friday! Michael. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KenEvans Posted July 21, 2008 Share Posted July 21, 2008 I'm pretty sure there's a charge for camping that would have been covered in the regs. I'm sure somebody will happily relieve you of a contribution on Friday evening Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neil.cavanagh Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 £7 camping charge.. which is a little bit of a phish take as there are no facilities beyond the porta-toilets. I'll be arriving sometime between 8 and 10pm depending on traffic. People normally camp up the road to the left as your drive in through the gates.

FlymoFraser Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 .....and whats the deal with trailers? ISTR from last year that there weren't any trailers in the paddock R287 Mobile Jaffa Cake- It's black at both ends with a smashing orangey bit in the middle here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Durrant Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 Neil As you enter the paddock I drive up the first road on the left keeping the paddock for cars numbered 1-23 on the your right and park off either side of this road.

DSL Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 There is a new for this season tarmac trailer park, as you enter through the gate, bear to the left & just as you start up the hill its on the left, tis the same place that everyone used before for their trailers just on the grass last time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blokko Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 Short notice I know, but does anyone have a spare ticket for Loton that they could get in the post today for me or (probably better given the time) arrange to meet me at the gate? – lost mine Steve - Orange and Black ex Academy - now looking at things from a slightly different perspective.

Mark Durrant Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 Steve I have a spare ticket but will not be able to get it in the post until tomorrow which will probably be too late. I could bring it with me, you could call me on my mobile when you arrive and I'll meet you at the entrance Mark D Comp Sec Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blokko Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 Mark *thumbup* I’ll BlatMail you so that you can send me your moby # Steve - Orange and Black ex Academy - now looking at things from a slightly different perspective. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlymoFraser Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 Must register my apologies re the tickets, promised my spare and then find that I seem to have put them in the recycling. Oh and Neil C, you've seen my trailer manouvering then 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris101 Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 We have two spare tickets, just email us and we can arrange to meet at the gate. If only everything in life was as simple as a 7!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blokko Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 Chris I may be bringing someone along with me, so that additional ticket would be great. If you could take the tickets along with you on Saturday, I’ll BlatMail you later this evening when I get home. -----Steve - Orange and Black ex Academy - now looking at things from a slightly different perspective.

Don Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 Steve, With having a double entry we have two spare tickets anyway - we're right by the entrance hut in the paddock as well, so give us a holler or I can give them to Mark. Lynda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blokko Posted July 25, 2008 Share Posted July 25, 2008 Lynda, Chris If one / both of you could hand over a spare ticket to Mark when you get to Loton, I’ll call his mobile when I arrive and get them off him. Many thanks to the both of you for the offer. Are you competing or spectating Lynda? -----Steve - Orange and Black ex Academy - now looking at things from a slightly different perspective.

neil.cavanagh Posted July 25, 2008 Share Posted July 25, 2008 I have a spare or two as well.... maybe we can get a L7C pit monkey to stand 10 yds down the road and start a ticket-touting agency for us! *wavey* 😬 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Posted July 25, 2008 Share Posted July 25, 2008 Will do Steve - and competing with a spot-the-difference-nosecone!! Fingers crossed everything's ok - we haven't had chance to drive it properly since the ... er ... modifications!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue-Lines Posted July 25, 2008 Share Posted July 25, 2008 Can we just turn up and watch, as with Curborough, Harewood etc? I didn’t get accepted for entry to Loton or Harewood ☹️ but would like to come and watch tommorow if possible. Martyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
