Please have your membership number and vehicle registration available at the time of booking. If you want to book additional nights this also needs to be done through the club.

On the evening of Friday 23rd there will be a "Meet the Bongonauts" social at 6pm
At 6pm on Saturday 24th there will be a "Jacobs Join", i.e. bring some food and drink to share with the others.

See you there!

I hope you can make it; but now something has happened and I can't go! Last Friday while driving to Mission Control in the Bongo I got hit from behind in stationery traffic. I won't know for sure until the assessors have had a look but it's probably an insurance write-off. So no chance of it being back on the road for Dent. Additionally, I sustained some minor injuries and need recuperation time. But just because we are not going it doesn't mean that you can't have a good time! Jason & Jane (the ones with Bert & Ernie the golden labradors) have agreed to be Chief Bongonauts for the weekend. and I'm sure others will help out if needed.

I will send an email to all those due to attend later today.

@Ian Bad news about the Bongo but good news it has looked after you. Hope you are on the mend soon. That's the second we've had recently, wonder if Cutlass has found a replacement?
