Kevin's reply:

Of course you can Taka.
I have already had some interest in the day so two places may already be
taken, but this will leave you with 10 available positions.
I will be working at the Motorshow for the duration so please drop by to say
hello, I will be giving demonstration rides for Jeep on the 4wd circuit.
Kind regards

Kevin

Now... how do we sign up..? Kevin?
