It surely will be a fine occasion: Johnny would be proud. Unfortunately, I can't be there, but please raise a glass on my behalf.

Hilary, I know that Mike Sparks already had enquiries about caravans and the Village hall car park will definitely be full. There is a row of shops nearby with some parking, but I wouldn't bet on any space being available there either. Perhaps if you can park safely near someone who will be making their own way to the event and cadge a lift...?

MGAS - I'll make enquiries. I suspect the Village Hall car park will be too full....

Silly question I suppose, but is there anywhere near the hall one could park a caravan overnight? A very disreputable caravan filled with port & cheese.....

I'm really looking forward to it. Haven't seen Tom Lewis for a couple of years, and cannot remember when I last saw Dave and Annie. Ben has yet to find out that he's going to this. It should be an education for him.

Please make sure you contact the "JC Box Office" for tickets, rather than ask Herga members to put aside tickets, or simply posting on this thread, as all ticket issuing and indeed the whole event organisation is under a single hat. That way mistakes can be avoided too (so you don't turn up on the day based on a promise, only to be disappointed).

The venue is pretty big, but at the moment tickets are being reserved in dozens from what I hear, so it is possible that we may reach the vilage hall's HSE capacity. I suggest you book earlier rather than later therefore.

Sorry can't make it twice in one year. I really should get my passport renewal sorted out, before I have to be there in April.
Sounds like a night not to be missed, have a great time anyhow.
