Well in the hope of making life easier for newcomers in the future let me correct the postcode for GA hotel
its not DT27PW as stated above
it’s DT29PW
i made the mistake of not verifying before leaving Poole thinking that like myself most porsche nuts are obsessional with detail so I wouldn’t need to check

WRONG
an hour and half later having wandered in the dark Dorset countryside I found signal for my phone and the correct postcode
I arrived at said GA hotel with a headache,having sat through a 3 hr board meeting before setting off.
i stopped for a glass of water and drove home taking an hour less than journey there!,
i hope you all had a good evening
cheers

Unfortunately this page is the only one on all of the Dorset region's web pages that had that typo, very unfortunate.

Indeed Geoff !,
maybe I’ll give it another shot in the lighter evenings in spring
cheers

Hi Dylan
Sorry to hear your frustrations with trying to join us Thursday night, as Geoff says it seems to be the only page where it's wrong, and has been for quite some time.

Thanks for letting us know so we can put it right, hope it hasn't put you off and you will join us again soon.

Regards

Karl

No worries Karl
its just one of those things that usually happens at the end of a stressful day??
gave me a good chance to use the pdls xenons ! Bloody impressive looking round blind dark country bends !
always a silver lining ??
