73156 shouldn't really be needed at GCR over 24-26 bearing in mind GCR is having their diesel gala that very weekend

Your guess is as good as mine to be honest, if there is an issue, would still appreciate an update.

I get that there are other priorities than to write a timetable but to post on the webpage saying "it will be out 3 weeks before the event" and we are now less than 2 weeks away and still no timetable is a little bit embarrassing to be honest in...

Personally I think we shoud have called this gala “It’s not all about the size you know”….But apparently that’s not very appropriate :D
