We got here. We managed to not get lost, apart from in both Fleet and Clacket Lane services… And also stopped all 4 lanes of the M25 for a moment, missed gearchange, cough.

Maritime circuit its on Chatham Historic Dockyard, easy enough to find, turn left at the big boat.

We hung around for a bit until climbing the stairs (via the window) to possibly the best indoor carpet facility in the UK. Loads of pitting, bagged some tables, and wondered in amazement at the cafe, toy shop and then a jolly quick looking track.

Mark’s wondering how you go round corners on a vertical wall…

It was still being built, but pictures show they layout, additions from last year include no straight and a bridge…

Pizza Hut provided comedy hats, and the hotel provided the smallest twin room I’ve ever seen. Complete with a no-walled wardrobe.

Timetable starts at 6am doors open, Mark and Rob practising before 7am and for some unknown reason I’m in heat 10 of 13… Yeah right, I’ll be dropping down then…

Look, photos!
