Interesting point. But if you are trying to do an XM anniversary 'Challenge' á la BX 25th in 2007 as they are, it could make it a bit harder :roll: :)

Let's see what happens. There might be some sneaky 'model-area-designation' guerilla raid on Saturday night :lol: :wink:

Surely they'll get all the XM's in the arena like they did with BX's IIRC??

It'd be plain silly not to really.
Smokes lots, because enough's enough already!

Far too many BX's, a bus, an ambulance a few trucks, not enough time and never enough cash...

Maybe. But we did have 60 or so BXs parked up together for the majority of the gathering... which was nice. 8)

As I said, (IMO) interesting point, sir.

Let's see what happens. Either way we should have a good time... birds of a feather... 8)

The Philibusters ie Me and Kermit are going to be there on the Saturday, camping over - I know of at least three others...

There'll be seven, eight or more is my guess.

We'll be there from about 3:30 pm onwards it is hoped.
