Shelsley Centenary

robert77 · 7 Jul 2005, 10:03 (Ref:1349413)

I know it's a few weeks off yet, but I can't wait till the Shelsley Centenary weekend.

I'll be camping (can't the point in going home to come back again for three days, even though I only live 10 miles away from Shelsley), but I was wondering who else will be staying for the party(ies).

There is a special area for us orange bods, so come on peeps, lets make it a weekend to remember.

I'm introducing a shift system for the marshals so that everyone will at least get to touch a fire extinguisher at some point over the week-end! Seriously, I'm awaiting the list of marshals, but I'm led to believe that we will have rather more than our usual complement.

Camping/caravanning is a must, though. Should be the party of the century. Don't forget that you've still got to be able to marshal on Sunday...

I been told pretty officailly that we could not only man Shelsley very well but we could also man the other two midland hill's with enough spare for a clubby at Curbrough.

As you say Wooley the party should be pretty darn good, i'm definitely staying saturday night avec Chevron bar shirt.

Fortunately my grandmother placed my order and said shirt was modelled last saturday. Should be able to make at least the saturday night and sunday for the centenary

If the weather's ok there's plenty of fun to be had both on track and off it.

robert77 · 8 Jul 2005, 08:27 (Ref:1350167)

If there's gonna that many marshals....

Is there gonna be a big enuff campsite?

Looks like I'll have to bring me tent over there on Thursday lunchtime to get a good camping slot.

But the word

and the possibility should the weather be good of some totty, I ain't missing this one.

So if there's any offers from any lady marshals for a tent share, please do ask.

I'll er .... guard the contents of the Jack Rohll *hic* er hut that weekend I think

**Woolley** · 12 Jul 2005, 22:09 (Ref:1354176)

If we drink enough of it, there won't be enough for the rest to get drunk on.

No, I'm wrong, they change the barrell when it runs out. I guess we could always try to restrict everyone to just the one can of Fosters instead...?

Ahh but woolley, if we drink enuff of it, they might run out of barrels mate. Then what would we do?

**Woolley** · 13 Jul 2005, 12:44 (Ref:1354599)

No, I just meant Alistair and me. Just thinking of your welfare...

robert77 · 13 Jul 2005, 12:54 (Ref:1354613)

Woolley...

And I was just trying to think of a duty that didn't involve a clutch, tyre or towing of any kind. (before anybody else got in

)

Don't worry mr crow, the van keys ain't coming within 1000yrds of you this time.

I rockon it was sabotage so you dint have to drive all the way up the hill you dark bird you.

G Tanner · 13 Jul 2005, 16:58 (Ref:1354796)

I think a pair of rollerskates is the best you can expect next meeting. Least there will be no punctures or clutches to burn out.

**Woolley** · 13 Jul 2005, 18:28 (Ref:1354862)

Hmm. A blow out in your roller skates doesn't sound good. Just as a precaution, I'm towing his caravan to Shelsley that week-end.

G Tanner · 13 Jul 2005, 22:51 (Ref:1355058)

That's a very brave thing to do...

The curse of Blackcrow could strike at any time......

I'd almost be tempted to think eating a pork pie was a safer bet..

Or pouring a cup of coffee.

Or reversing your car a few feet with the only obstacle being a stationary tree?
