Was it 3 years ago marshals were wearing shorts? Turned out one of the best days of the year.
I do remember being on Pit In and trying to defrost the entrance where there was a fair bit of ice. Thought we had done OK until the stewards came in, very very slowly, but still managed a bit of a wobble. More sand and we were away. Putting the Formula Fords out last was a bit tricky though - they couldn't see in the dark!! Cars with headlights are probably the best bet to go last. I seem to remember having to referee a big old scrap between a couple of drivers on Rocket last year - I guess you know someone has really lost the plot when they are trying to punch a guy wearing a full face helmet. Happy memories. If you have never done the winter meeting here, it is a real end of term feel to it and very enjoyable - I will certainly be there |

Definitely worth going. Weather can be a bit iffy but a good wind down for the winter (although I am considering the 750MC Winter Series at Donington on 28th December).
Congratulations to Steve and Andrea. I wouldn't call her a Michelin Man, though or you could end up divorced before you're married! |

Enjoyed taking part in this meet last byear in the two-driver Enduro, althouigh racing a car you've never sat in before in the wet and dark is......interesting.
Not sure about this year - money's a bit tight - could well be tempted to come and marshal |

I'm there for this one. The Anglesey winter meetings are always great (mind you, so are the summer one's ! )
And just like Paul, i'm also thinking about doing the Donington 750MC meeting on 28th December. |

Last year was like standing in a working car wash.
Seem to remember KayBee occupying the shed whilst we got wet. No idea that water could get to so many places. A trial of winter clothing but also good fun. Well worth the effort. DM |

There are three types of waterproofs - shower proof; storm proof; and Anglesey proof. I'm still looking for the latter!

I am there for the test day and the meeting, looking forwards to a fun meeting.
If its bouncing down we can play the how many marshals can you get in the box game |

What's on the Saturday, then? AS far as I can tell, the meeting is only scheduled for the Sunday. That said, there is a fair chance there will be few getting there a little early, no doubt. Like, Friday!!

Darn it! the secrets out! Trust me, if the legends were allowed to test we would never get a moments peace! That said testing at that time of year is usually fraught with problems, mostly weather related!
