Good luck, I wish you well, but I now have 2 options, go to Normandy in June, and know what I am getting, or wait until the END of June in the HOPE that you get permission for this event in Holland in September. By the end of June, my option for the start of June is firmly in the toilet of past history, I would be left hoping that my last 75th anniversary event window materialises 8 weeks before I would be due to go, if you have this much mooted 600 participants and 200 vehicles then surely you MUST already know what you are doing and have permissions ? That should have been the FIRST thing done, not the last ? How can people arrange time off work etc., 8 weeks in advance when they don't know they can go ? It all seems so flawed, Cost is cost, no matter how it's broken down, sorry but your logic falls flat, Someone could organise an MVT rally in Outer Mongolia at only £ 5 per head with free Yak milk included, if every vehicle pays for ITSELF to get to Outer Mongolia ( and back ) ! How on earth can people be expected to commit holiday allocation, £ 290 sent off to an organisation that provides you with no concrete information, the work and maintenance involved in getting your vehicle ready, plus the cost ( another £225 in my case ) of U.K. travel fuel, making my trip FIVE HUNDRED AND EIGHTEEN POUNDS not £ 290, plus the dreaded pink slip negotiation to get 2 weeks away from the MemShaib when you can't tell anyone what is happening until 8 weeks before ? I don't want to rain on anyone's MV parade but I'm out of your "hope it happens" MV parade

Wow !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hello Sir, thank you for your reply, I have emailed and had almost no information and I have to decide soon where to go this year, I have just had waffle back, I expected dates, travel details, an itinery, a list of camp sites, events, etc., etc., as it is £ 290 plus getting myself too and from the port at 8MPG I have had nothing concrete back, just " we do not have details yet but hope to by June, no we do not have the route agreed with the towns en route other than in principle, we are waiting for the rubber stamps" ? I rather liked the idea of this event as it is a 70th anniversary one off, but the lack of information is really well, disconcerting I won't be forwarding any money until I get this information, I wondered if it was just me so thought I'd ask after and internet search only brought up posts on a few forums such as this in Google. After all for the cost of getting to and from the port, I can take myself the rest of the way for less than they are asking

Hi, I have found this forum through a search about this event, is anyone going on it ? I can find almost no information out from the website or from the organisers who I have emailed ?
