I hope Malc means 7:30 am, although by arriving at about 10pm we should at least be able to park somewhere! Wishful thinking on my part Gareth, yes I did mean 7.30am.and not 7.30pm.

Only few days left for any members who still wish to come along, and have not made their intentions to attend known to me.

Heads up everyone. The registration form for Dieppe is now available. Malcolm has given me a list of happy travellers. I'll be completing the registration in the next day or so, so if you're not on my list, you won't be on the form. I'll also contact the hotel to make a provisional registration for rooms. I'll do this in the week after Easter, so let me know of any changes
So far the list consists of: Malcolm & Debbie Ernie & Sandra Mike & Barbara Barry & Janet Heather Peter Bill (provisional) Gareth (provisional Chris & Tony (registration and camping)

I'll do this in the week after Easter, so let me know of any changes So far the list consists of: Malcolm & Debbie Ernie & Sandra Mike & Barbara Barry & Janet Heather Peter Bill (provisional) Gareth (provisional Chris & Tony (registration and camping) The registration is completely on-line this year, which is a pain as I need to have all information to hand, as there is no means of saving it and going back to it that I can see. Hey ho, such is life. So I will probably do the registration after the AGM on Sunday or Monday when I've got some time. Malcolm, I will need to give them your contact phone number in regard to insurance Chris and Tony, the terms and conditions say that parking of camping cars and caravans is now prohibited on the sea front, and there are facilities available in a couple of places, but you need to contact the Dieppe tourism office for more information. I'll dig out the relevant parts and let you have them at the AGM I will complete the registration as a club registration, so all passes will be in one pack together, unless anyone wants to register independently in which case you need to go to www.dieppe-cerf-volant.org/festival/kiteflyers.html to complete the paperwork. Let me know on here, so I don't register you twice.

I've put down Bill, Mike and Barbara as my passengers. Malcolm, can I leave you to let Ernie know the details.
I haven't completed the festival registration yet as I need to know Chris & Tony's vehicle registration so I can book them a caravan place.

Gareth,
Thanks for update, have passed the info to Ernie. Now really looking forward to the KKF outing to Dieppe, and going out at a respectable time for all.

Festival registration has been completed and submitted. Hope I got it all right!
Tony & Chris, I've requested a camping car pass for you. I think it will be with all the registration documents at the registration tent. Assuming you get there before us, the registration is in the name of Kent Kite Flyers.

I've now had confirmation from Dieppe that our registration has been completed.
Note for future years, each partiipant has to register separately for the event, and say they are travelling as part of the KKF party. For this year, the festival organisers have completed the registration for all attending even though we didn't complete individual registrations.
Tony & Chris, your camping pass is being organised - or at least, that's what they tell me

For those travelling to Dieppe, the exchange rate is pants. The best I can get in the city is 1.096. Next week is my last week in the city, so I plan to get currency, probably on Wednesday, so will be placing an order on Tuesday. If anyone wants some currency at that rate, let me know and I'll add it to my order.
