    Hmmm. Good point.

    I'm sure The Man will take his super-dooper camera, but has anyone got a reasonable quality digital camera I could borrow perhaps???

    We will be taking heaps of photo's at the GP as well as the National Motorcycle Museum in Tamworth ( country music capital of Aus ) at least it's got something going for it.
    I'm sure kiwizrx will also take heaps of digital photos.

    We have booked a campervan and a site at Highlands. (On the trackside.)

    Stayed there in '02 and it worked out great. Get to a good vantage point in the morning. No traffic to fight with after racing and cruise into Cowes any time later.

    If it is any help, the website we booked from is at http://www.calypsocampervans.com.au/2003/3-4frame.htm

    Shopped around and they were the cheapest. Cheaper than the rental we had in '02

    That's gotta be better than tenting it. Thanks for the link, Bill. Will be a good fallback if The Man's friends are no longer in town. The airport pickup makes it that much more attractive.

    Being frustrated is disagreeable.

    But the real disasters in life begin when you get what you want.

    Don't worry about the camera at this stage, Blakamin. I'll see if I can wangle the bosses digital camera out of him first.

    Paul in NZ - 2 nights accomodation where, exactly?

    Thanks to Denill, I have just secured The Last available campervan for the MotoGP weekend!!! Deposit done & sorted out the airport pickup too. I've just sent away the last e-mail to secure camping at the track for us. Fingers crossed....



    The Man's best friend, a NZer now living/farming in Tasmania, called me yesterday to say he'll meet us at Melbourne airport & he's coming too! This cunning plan has come together so easily, in the end, that I'm really looking forward to it myself.

    5.5 weeks to go.

    I don't know, but I'm sure he'll have an overly developed tongue from all the arse-licking he would have had to do with his wife to get the weekend away to join us!
