Premier Inns Nottingham Marina has double rooms for £64 per night. It's pretty close to the race venue apparently.

It's on 4 days after my birthday. Unfortunately, it's my 59th birthday. If it's on the same weekend the following year, i will definitely be tempted.

Re: BIRC / European IRC 2012
I have completed the entry form and paid today
Not really because I'm desperately keen too, but more because I can't think of a good enough reason not too!

Re: BIRC / European IRC 2012
I have entered , and just saw that my name is on the list, together with fellow LTW Peter T and many more in our agegroup .
Looking forward to the race(maybe?), and meeting FS-friends again(definitely!) I hope that Olaf and Thor will join me to Nottingham. They will both go to Boston/Crash-B 2012. I will not be in Boston next year(to bad I know!). So hope to see Christine in the UK then [-o< ? And whatever that’s left of Peter W/Grobi becoming a fellow LTW. But 1.89m and LTW? Skinny guy!! But impressive determination though=D>
