Guest starspirit Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 Anyone else going? We plan to if the weather is halfway decent as experience tells us that Stratford Racecourse is not somewhere you would want to be in heavy persistent precipitation. No booking then - we will just appear as if by magic - although it will more probably by the M5 and A46. Being a kind, caring, decent sort of geezer I just thought that I would give you all fair warning to head off in the opposite direction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest starspirit Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 It's on from 1st to 3rd of June but camping is available from the 28th May at a fiver a night if you want to be early. Full details on the Stone Leisure website but its £45 from Monday to Monday or £25 from Friday to Monday or day visitors a fiver per adult and kids free. However - I'm not about to let anyone dump any kids on me even if they are free and seeing some kids I can understand why they would be free.
