No problem, I have contacts

you should do, you worked on a farm for god knows how long

A little bird told me you find "the goods" up cows back sides...

karting at the outdoor track is off.

despite acctually getting our time slot booked i was told i would need a £200 pound deposit before they could confirm the booking thats just stupid and its none refundable.

so looks like the cramped conditions at dunston is our only option

The Dunston one is very good for indoor, I was just looking forward to driving the outdoor again.

Did you book it?

About the £200 deposit... we are actually going to go aren't we?

If thats a definate yes, then I don't see why we can't pay the deposit (if cash funds are low, I could probably PayPal it)

I might be unpacking my orange probans for that weekend!


My Old Man's birthday, so beer beer beer BBQ beer beer...

ok, glyn has completly confused me

Imma get this straight: £200 non-refundable deposit is ****, so we arent going to the outdoor one and going to the indoor one?

As I discussed with Neil earlier, £200 is too steep for us, any of us (including Neil) to pay, unless we can guarentee numbers. I know for a fact that Neil, Ian, Graham and myself would all attend, but I can't say for sure who else (mostly local) who would be turning up, so £200 deposit, and thus a booking at the outdoor track, is out of the question.

What we have left is:
1) book the indoor track (which I'm leaning towards)
2) book the indoor track if there's no deposit, but check the outdoor track's availability on the night, and use that if possible
3) we don't book either, and just phone up on the night, using either outdoor track or indoor track - advantage: cheaper, and less committing - disadvantage: obviously no guarentee. If both fall through, we watch speedway, or just **** about or something.

Graham said he was going to book the indoor track today, but I've had no confirmation.

On a completely unrelated note: ROFL @ Lastlap - a man seemingly even more drunk than me!

wasnt there a paintball thing mentiond too?

Yeah, the idea floated around - but that would need booked too.

im 90% i'll be there

thats just stupid and its none refundable.

Dosn't sound stupid to me, your booking a race track If you decide to book the track and not turn up, they are probably gonna lose out more than £200! They are just covering their asses from idiots who abuse it... (chavs mainly )

Im the same as Dave, 90% I can make it.

I just have to wait and see how much money I get when I get paid and be certain for transport, then thats it

Who are you quoting Ian?

Just for the record, yes, the deposit would be fine normally, but unless we had a rock-solid number we could work with, then that's out of the question.

Still waiting on Graham telling me what's happening....
