Hey everyone.

Really boring post this, but I jsut felt I had to write something.

Was at Brands for 750MC today and despite the rain I absolutely loved it. This was only my second event as a marshal and it has definitely persuaded me to carry on and I just want to do more now! Was a bit of a baptism of fire as I had to help out on two largish incidents (including the biggie on Brabham in the RGB) and when your a novice and dont really have a clue what to do its a bit nervewracking as you dont want to screw anything up (im sure youve all felt this!), but all the guys on post 3 were very helpful and were a quality bunch so Cheers Guys!!

I learnt a LOT today (inlcuding it really is a good idea to hit the deck when there is a large amount of gravel flying towards you!!) and am definitely going to continue. Will be at Donington for the 750MC in two weeks, so I hope to see some of you there (If you see a mini Bus with a big Yellow Spot on the side from Oxford Brookes Uni, thatll be me!!)

Cheers again to all on Post 3 and everyone else for making it a fantastic day.

Cheers

Mark

Glad you enjoyed your day now you know what is meant by the bug! It is good when a novice has something to do on thier debut hope that you gained from the experience Mark. See you at Donington.

Hi Mark,

It was good to have you on post yesterday and I'm glad to see you managed to make it back to Oxford in one piece! Did your other colleagues enjoy their day as well?

So all in all, it was good for everyone and again a quality day!
