Udimore Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 have just set the sat nav and can't wait first time to this site. is it better than the farmer giles site? Yes much improved... better space, facilities, warmer, cleaner and generally feels better and Oh yes the car park :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jez Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 Yes much improved... better space, facilities, warmer, cleaner and generally feels better and Oh yes the car park :D It also makes the "chase the hobbit" game much easier Nathan, we all run (well some walk hey ben) around the racecourse now rather than a random field. We tie a bottle of cider to a rabbit and Tris chases that and we chase Tris. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted October 7, 2008 Author Share Posted October 7, 2008 ricky if you can get an early flight,for 6ish into exeter i can pick you up on the way past to old masseys then on to toytrac, airports only 5 mins of the road past Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 In stitches after Jez's explanation of Chase the Hobbit :D Wincanton racecourse cannot be compared to Farmer Giles Farmstead. Everything the new venue is; the old one wasn't. Going by last year I wouldn't be surprised if Toytrac outgrew the current setting for the show to be honest. The Pavillion has transformed the show and hugely increased the appeal of it. Steve, Karen, Warner and Sue put huge effort into finding a new home for Toytrac and you will see that as soon as you pull in off the road. Even the bacon is still hot at 2pm!!
