I'm tempted to do it, fancy a bit of a laugh but aside from the chavness cant make my mind up if it's going to be that professional an event ...

I'll do it :)

Thata a very cheap week of cars , girls and parties

I doubt the ultimate chavs will be their as they would have to save up their dole money for ages to afford the entry fee ;)

c'mon do it do it!

I'll be talking to my friend (and co-pilot) about this as we've always wanted to do a gumball but been put of by expensive entry fees. This one is quite cheap.

I was informed at the weekend that the annual 'lads holiday' won't be happening in 2007 as my friends have other commitments (babys and houses to buy) so this is an ideal alternative for me :)

EDIT: he won't actually be buying a baby, his missus will be giving birth...worded it badly :D
