Will the Denbies meet be coming back at all? Seemed like a good venue when we used to meet up Sunday mornings?

Let us know...

Its sad to be reading review like this (from @itsuki), but considering many of us from the UK have used Tuning Developments multiple times I feel compelled to chip in too.
I have used them many times (first NA, then TD Turbo kit), and in fact all my major mods have been done or installed by Mike's team ( @Mike@TD.co.uk). Never had any issues and the service was always superb (had a manifold blow once, Mike fitted me basically next day and got it sorted pronto). Admittedly, I would go to Warrington myself and speak to Mike as to what I want/ what options are available, etc.
I am not surprised reading "horror stories" about shipping recently. We have covid, brexit and particularly over November-December I had parcels lost, delivered 3-4 weeks later, etc (for example my new wheels were delayed, and then DHL notification arrived a week after the wheels themselves - go figure).
Large number of satisfied customers hopefully will back me up with their 1st hand experience, although there would be an occasional story with unhappy ending (as I have heard with forged engine) - like with any business. Limited Google or FB reviews are not (probably) the representative sample, although anyone who feels they have to leave a 1* review should be listened to by the business aiming to improve their customer service.
I hope with the move to new premises and increase of business Mike will also get someone to help with the customer service/ tracking shipping/ other admin and client communication stuff.

Thanks to this topic, I managed to install my own with no hiccups. I did have to unbolt the front seat to install it, which really isn’t too much trouble. Disconnected the battery and waiting 30mins so as not to upset any airbags. Looking forward to trying it on track. 
 

With 2022 fast approaching and after current Omicron wave is hopefully over by the end of winter (and most of us being triple/ quadruple vaccinated by then), its time to start thinking which social and club events we would like to put in our diaries.
Couple suggestions below (in italics are those we either already have in the calendar or usually attend so I assume we'll do it again in 2022).

(Looks like I am going to miss first 2 events 😥 - Spring Action Day and Japfest Silverstone, they are both during Spring school holidays and we'll be out (hopefully) of the country next year)
Have to do Summer Action Day then at Castle Combe - hope we'll have enough interest? Let me know

I should be able to do Saturday & Sunday. 

That’s a long long list, hopefully I’ll get a few in this year providing the virus doesn’t take over. 
Would be really to see some familiar and new faces.

I'm in for any numbers of days and can "man" for one of them (preference depends on which events I may wish to attend).
Does anyone know about accommodation? Or, should we expect to drive off then on overnight? (I have family that is close).
VIP tickets looks tempting - is that for one day or the whole event?

I can do the Thursday or Friday but not both

Tickets booked for Sun 29th
