Well despite being Lotus-less again this year (although briefly owning one in the interim) it seems we have a quorom of BoLOCs heading to Goodwood on Friday

Will be planning to take the stealth route, early doors
http://www.grinnders.com/GoodwoodviaLavant.html (can you tell I work for Ordnance Survey wink )

Doors open @ 0700 so suggest departure from Poole 0600, Westover Road (if required) Cooper Dean 0615... add to the list below if you wish to join and are en route.. (P.S. I'll have 1 spare ticket)

1. Capt Grinnders (a.k.a Capt.Slow)
2. MiniDiva and OrangeD
3. Capt.G's mate Mark & wife

i'm not there, but if you see a metallic red mini driven by a completely barking mad portuguese woman (easy to spot, as she will be going the wrong way up the motorway), take her under your wing as she's my little lady...

I may be interested in the drive over there at 6am as new baby forces early starts anyway. Can't do the day though, so would make a loop out of it and come straight back.
Will
p.s: I was the new guy on the last run in case you were wondering!

Well you're welcome if you want... the route is relatively boring until you come off the motorway... http://www.grinnders.com/GoodwoodviaLavant.html and then its a relatively fast B road.. of course when you turn around you'll likely be the only one heading west on the lavant (straight) road wink
