Stef,
As per my post hereI intend to be at Callander again this year (26-27 Aug), and details are here:
http://www.callanderclassic.com/body_CCW.htm
where you can also download the entry form (my post linked above also takes you to the pdf file).

Club Lotus Scotland said they would give more details of the Club Lotus stand in July's newsletter, but I haven't received it yet. Anybody?.

I might just be there on Saturday, but may stay over if my arm is twisted. Hopefully Andrew will be there to defend his "best Lotus" cup.

Are you planning on just a weekend, or a bit of a tour around also. If the latter, you're welcome at our place near Aberdeen. But then, maybe you visited enough distilleries last time.

Righty ho, I shall get the form sent off!

I will be there for the full weekend, hoping to spend some camping time with some of you lot while there, and will be doing another drive/camp tour of Scotland!

This time however I will very likely be in Tivi so will be a whole new experience!

I'm sure there was greater interest for this event!

Great,
does "a little more commited" mean you'll bring a tent, sleeping bag & change of clothes this time?

John,
You also forgot to mention "waterproof jacket" , as I borrowed Andrew Ennis' on the Sunday ;-)

I now own a sleeping bag thanks to Callanders finest outdoor shops staying open late on Saturday nights. As for the tent, I'm hoping some kind soul will let me share :roll:

Will be there on Sunday this year. Definitely can't manage the pish up on Friday night but may have an outside chance of making the pish up on Sat. evening after I've done my chauffering duties at a 60th birthday party

Ditto. I may stay over Sat night, but will certainly be there on Sunday early.

Filial duties then Mark? Many happy returns to your dad. (It's not your girl friend is it?)

No John - its not my girl friend - I always go for the young ones !! So much more stamina

It is her Mum's 60th though and I will have to chauffer people around in my sensible car and stay sober until I reach Callander. Hopefully it will be sunny this year and Andrew's ball joint will be mended and he'll defend his cup

Tried to get booked in on Friday, no-one answered all day.

Will try again tomorrow.

Stef,
I think they just accept the forms by post. I've never tried 'phoning anybody.

Looking forward to it!

Got my official entrants plaque today, along with the programme and site information. Club Lotus will be in the same corner as last year next to the Porsche club and Italian exotica. Looks like the camping is also in the same area as last year

Yup, got mine too. Looks like the same layout as last year for us. Who's going apart from me & Rambo?

John

PS: got your email confirming my booking for your cabin in October Mark - looking forward to it. I know the area well and it's beautiful.

Do you just fill out the form as a single entrant and then stick the car on the Lotus stand on the day?

Alan,
that's what I did, plus put a note on the form to say I would be on the Club Lotus stand.

The promised Club Lotus newsletter finally arrived today and contains a Club Lotus application form, but as it was so late in arriving I had already sent off my entry using the one from the Callander Classics website http://www.callanderclassic.com/body_CCW.htm .
