SCB 0 Posted August 17, 2006 I notice Shazzy was on the bottom tier the blue brothers year, guess what year I was on the bottom tier? Maybe that year was just crap for atmosphere,on the bottom tier at least. My ultimate tip is sit by the Poles, they're wonderful people! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

shazzybird 10 Posted August 18, 2006 I never watch the tv's except for the replays though, what a waste of money <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Came in handy a few times, as missed some of the action, maybe if the roof had been taken up a little higher and the seats a bit steeper so when people sat in front of you they were as far apart as the upper tiers it might be better. There was some woman in front of me that had a Scott Nicholls banner fairly wide and the same deep that blocked out the viewing, well up until Scott went out then she turned the bloody thing round to cheer for Rickardsson My ultimate tip is sit by the Poles, they're wonderful people! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> They were that year SCB went and stood with them at the bar after a while as could see better from there this year though they were a pain in the butt on the second tier, first bend caused a massive argument with a few fans in the front row over a banner.

shalefan 12 Posted August 24, 2006 How have some people on here said they have booked to stay in a Travelodge. I have tried from the day they let out the dates for next years GP to book a room in a Travelodge or Travelinn but when through they are telling me they cannot take any bookings that far in advance. I even contacted head office and they say the same?? Nine months in advance only they are telling me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

shalefan 12 Posted August 24, 2006 Fairy, this cannot be right wih regards to Travel Inns and Travelodges. You say you have to be quick. You cannot get much quicker than when the dates have just been released on the TV. As said I phoned straight away and got told and keep getting told that no one can book a room unless nine months in advance. They just wont take a booking now for these motels/hotels, that's why I am baffled as to how people are saying they have booked with these two groups ? That was last year. They now sell 1 year in advance but you had to be quick. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shazzybird 10 Posted August 24, 2006 Sorry Shalefan but my rooms are booked as well, it may well be if you phone the central reservation you get booked I then just phoned the hotel direct and changed the dates that I previously had. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shalefan 12 Posted August 25, 2006 Shazzy, honest I contacted several of the two groups Hotels and central reservation dept on the evening the dates were set and the following days and they have all said the sdame to me. Not only that they did say that they have been called by hundreads of Speedway fans and they have all been told the same. Can I ask Shzzy just as a matter of interest what one have you booked into Sorry Shalefan but my rooms are booked as well, it may well be if you phone the central reservation you get booked I then just phoned the hotel direct and changed the dates that I previously had. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
