And before anyone complains about that, I'll just say that Sy has tried and been unsucessful at this stage, so we're waiting on Smiffy
Sy needs to talk to young Smiffy - I ain't got the power (or skills). In the meantime, I've made the 2013 Lotus events sticky and added dates to keep Pinky and Chris quiet!

Dinner is one thing, dancing is directly proportional to alcohol intake.
At this point I have an impulse to post dancing GIFs so I imagine something like the following:
Nick

Shaun (Dancing Dr, geddit!)

Rip (Adam West Batman)
Invisible Stef (Based on your latest pics)

Not sure I dare find one for Kim.
Feel free to find one for me.

Nice one G! PMSL!
So where will these, ahem, 'dancng' shianigans be taking place??
Men are like a fine wine.
They begin as grapes, and it's up to women to stomp the sh * t out of them until they turn into something acceptable to have dinner with.

Wayne/Elaine - I notice that you've not put your names down for the Saturday convoy as obviously your Elan will still be in Arizona. Don't despair though - the Sat meet up in the car park of the Travelodge and subsequent is one of the highlights of the weekend and I'm sure there will be any number of people with spare seats happy to take you both to the venue

Where will the curry be and where will the dinner/dance be?
I will only be 20mins from Donington, so don't need Travelodge but would like to know where the feeding takes place!!!!

Friday evening is traditionally held at the
melbourne arms.
As for the Saturday, I don't know what Geoff is planning

Dave
Just the one now, but this one's mine! - and it will be finished eventually..... - but also temporary custodian of a project until it is finished enough for Angie to drive it
...oh, and a 2006 Freelander destined for the jungles of The Gambia - 4500 miles across roads, desert and tracks - what could possibly go wrong?

Although traditionally the Sat. night entertainment has been held in The Navigation Inn by the canal in Shardlow. Good beer, excellent pub grub and a room that can be pre-booked to take the LEC throng

There will be a few but as you can see from the thread so far, Saturday is the big one for Elans. The Esprit crowd tend to favour Sunday.
