[QUOTE="Pete B, post: 416728, member: 3821"] Have just organised booking camping at Stanford Hall, and with one exception, what a refreshingly old school process it was! Yes, there is a website and it is necessary to download the booking form. From that point onwards, it is like a step back in time, send a [u]cheque[/u] along with an [u]SAE[/u] to 'The Estate Office' and your passes will be returned in said SAE. Just in case there is a problem, there is a new fangled e-mail address but more importantly a telephone number where you may actually speak to a real, live person! I used this obscure facility last year when the event was postponed and shock, horror, was greeted by a well spoken, well informed, very polite lady, who sorted out my issue with great efficiency. Should that approach not be suitable, there is, and wait for it, I kid you not,....., a FAX number!!!!! I love this approach, soooooo much nicer than the usual and impersonal web based efforts, if it costs a couple of quid more then that's money well spent in my opinion. Fits perfectly with the feel I get now and always have had of this event. I love it!!! :D (even if they don't like anything other than std spec stuff!) EDIT; last cheque I wrote was for car tax in April last year, the one before that was for Stanford Hall last year....... :lol: [/QUOTE]
