F1 Silverstone 20/21 June - will i be the only Bongo again ?

[scanner]

not really selling it am I !

Errrrrrrrrrrrrrr........... in a word - No.

I went to plenty of GP's when I used to do some work for Canon years ago and having to pay Bernie's ticket prices just to stand (or sit) with the ticket fodder is a bit of a comedown and rather spoils the whole experience.........................

tell you what i'll phone you so you can hear the proper ambience !

My ears remember quite well what ambiance sounds like from the pitlane thanks and they've been topped up regularly since at Le Mans Series races and events like the Renault freebie.

hi cc

yep i will be at the f1 this year.....

but not in the bongo

my mate has a american camper and we will be in that, and at the whittlebury site but i dont know what area

yep was very expensive, and i couldnt really afford it, but my mate just booked it and said i was coming and had 5 months to find the money

290 quid for the 4 days and i think on race day we are on the corner near the start line etc

will have to sober up for the sunday lol

i will only be doing f1 the once for the experience....

hi,
i shall be going to silverstone, but unfortunatley i will be leaving the bongo at home as i'm having to slum it in a rather large bustner motorhome..!! (bigger fridge for the beer..!!)
Was there last year, didn't see any bongos.. was abit of a blur all weekend though.. !!! i'll keep my eyes peeled this time and pop by for a beer....

[ccrobins]

so I'm still the only bongo ! yep call in for a beer by all means. Bet your on electric hookup and everything too - probably up more towards the clubhouse - i'm on copse which you will more or less walk though to get to the cicuit - campsite tickets arrived yesterday too !

[ccrobins]

holiday inn eh ? you posh lot though it does sound a good deal - will brekky be as good as a bongo brekky though ?

hope you have a coolant alarm though - you'll be queueing all the way in on sat and sun

[Big Up The Bongo]
