I virtually live in the park so it would be rude not to!

Who else is coming along?

[Billy Russell]

I'm going!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Jim_77]

Nice one, are you just up for the day or staying the night somewhere?

[Billy Russell]

Don't know to be honest Jim, i'm still in 2 minds, my other half and the kids were coming, but they've decided not to now!!!  I think i may come up the night before! wheres everyone staying? It's ok Jim, i know you only live a stone throw away! Are you going to be meeting up for a few beverages the night before?

[John Kelly]

I'll be there. Running the Chemspec stand. Believe theres a barby on at the campsite on the Friday night. John Bridon will be there so any donations can be given to him on the day. Jamie at CSUK will know better. Staying at Kettering Travel Lodge Friday & Saturday as are a few others I believe.

Just wondering if you have to be a member of NCCA to go to the carnival?
We're not (yet) but will be soon hopefully. Looks like a good chance to look at products and meet people......

[John Kelly]

Its open to anyone. Contact the NCCA for tickets.

[AshWhite]

I'm using my phone at the moment, could someone just fill me in on where it is and when?

[Clare.w]

Thanks John, see you there then 

[Jamie Pearson]

I am there. Helping John at the Chemspec stand. We will be camping and have BBQ and Beer!

[Jamie Pearson]

Not decided which night for BBQ yet. Most likely Friday and Saturday too!

[Paul Moss]

Think i might make be able to make this.

[Phillip Mold]

How far is Kettering travel lodge from wisksteed please?

[creighton foyle]

philip i think it is about a mile away but as the lodge is alongside a dual carriageway it is slightly longer one way as you have to travel a couple of miles to the right exit though i am sure jim can explain better than me.

Philip, best way to get from the travelodge to the park is to fly along to Junc.8, turn back on yourself and come off at J9 (by the cinema/Tesco).  Unfortunately although it's less than a mile in a straight line, you're stranded on the wrong side of a dual carriageway to make it easy to walk between hotel/park!

You could do a very long way round walking but it would probably takes ages and not be very safe.  A taxi should cost £6-£8 at a rough guess.

Billy, it would be rude not to have a few beers!  If people want to meet somewhere quite close to the venue and travelodge (where it seems most are staying), my local watering hole is very close indeed.

Or I'll come down to the park if the BBQ idea is a goer.

Ash, it's on the 17th Sept in Kettering, about 45 mins east of Birmingham from you
