    Just a bit of advice for people either with tickets or looking for tickets

    KIDS get in free, they don't need tickets

    might just free up a few spare tickets (hopefully)

    To anyone seeking accommodation there is a possibility that we could accommodate (albeit a tad "back packer"). We live in Brackley and let out our rooms over the GP weekend. We can let out a double room and two single rooms sleeping up to 7 guests (one futon and two camp beds) at £50 per room including self serve full english. If interested, send us a message ok. [EMAIL="chooks1234@btinternet.com"]chooks1234@btinternet.com[/EMAIL]

    ...a tad "back packer" at £50 per room. I take it you have not done a lot of backpacking - £50 is 3 star hotel rates for a Moneysavers on here. Futons and camp beds do sound like backpacking standards though.

    Having just got back from Grand Prix weekend, I can assure you that £50 is an absolute steal. If you are walking distance camping wise from the circuit, you can stay in a field with next to no facilities for £80-100 per night.

    Whittlebury Hall (which is a heck-of-a-walk) was charging something like £200 for the weekend PLUS £200 for a hookup (and if you were unlucky, you only got a 2 amp socket)
    The smaller the monkey the more it looks like it would kill you at the first given opportunity.

    kazaimee, to borrow from Dilfred's earlier post:

    Do I need a ticket for my child?
    Children who are under 16 and accompanied by an adult do not need a ticket
