In a night club?  scared2:

No. Me 'oneymoon Hotel (in Ayia Nappa) was 'overbooked' (1984 iirc) and they shipped us off to some rancid shithole with a generator blaring away outside the bedroom window.
I marched back to the original hotel half a mile awy and dragged the manager out of his pit at 01:00 to face the wroth of me fury.
He found us a room funnily enough. whistle:

I am NOT going to pay somewhere in the region of 30 quid to go and shiver and be shephered'd around like a friggin' lost sheep up the Gt Orme in Llandudno or one of the other forests that the WRC is fina;;y re-visiting again in just 10 days time.
I'd ssssso like to go and watch like I used to religiously every year for decades.

I piggin well wish! sad32:

Is this a national clubman rally then?

Rallying scene is dying a very sad and slow death in this country now, thanks in the main to the FIA/MSA and all the other gin swigging thieving toffs that are 'in charge' and making the rules up as they bumble along.
They make me want to  sick2: violently.  Angry9:
