Its that time of year again when the FOS is this weekend, and the moving motor show is this Thursday.

Is anyone going? I'm heading down on Thursday and am looking forward to a look at the new Type R amongst other things!

No one wants to go any more

Plus it's so bloody dear now.

So an almost certain no, for me, for the second year in a row, after doing 14 on the trot.

Wouldn't be so bad, but I missed the 73rd and 74th members meetings too, plus we miss/forget the Revival EVERY bloody year without fail

Tickets for Thursday could be had for £15 online, its only the weekend which is mega money? Fortunately we have got hospitality by Infinity and are being picked up and dropped off from a mates which makes it easier!

Nice one Dan, you Jammy beggar

I always went Sunday, then it got dearer and busier so we economised and did Saturday a couple of times.

Last time I went was 2013 and we went on the Friday as that was the cheapest option where cars would actually be running.

It also meant that none of them would have been blown up or had a granny knot tied in them yet.

Money's been so tight the last year or so that it's nigh on impossible for me, but the main thing is that all my pals are grumpy miserable cunts now and aren't interested in going there any more.

Was a good day out, we were chauffeured there and back by inifinty, and had lunch in them in their lounge. New Focus RS was half poking out from under a car cover in that pastel blue they come in and saw the new Type R in the flesh and it was awesome!

Was a great day out. It was about twice as busy on Friday as it was last year.

Absolutely love it, if I did have a criticism it didn't seem that varied on the hill, ran a lot of the cars two or three times.

Saw Kimi doing donuts in a rarri tho. So day
