    I wasn't aware it was on, having been under a rock for a few weeks! But as it happens being local we were off to Chippenham Sat am and got caught up in the traffic. I did enjoy seeing a long line of very shiny 5s but did not envy you all queueing. Hope it was worth it those of you who made it. I would like to try and go next year.

    Re: JAPFEST

     Ditto re the queueing...........grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr......................

    Booked into a Premier Inn at Frome for the night before, arrived at the traffic jam in the morning at 9-45am.....at 12-45 I reckon from the traffic standstill we wouldn't be in for at least another 1 1/2 to 2 hours so abandoned and came home,,,,,,,,

    300 miles and about £200............I've never experienced such shambolic road/traffic management...........A bloody disgrace............
