Dress, parking + taxi shuttle


No presents, thanks!

Your prescence is more than enough :)


Dress

Fancy dress is optional, but you've probably got the jeans and the check shirt already and it's a good excuse to buy those boots! Neckties and 10-gallon hats welcome, but leave your Colt 45s at the door.


The event is outdoors but largely under cover – you may want something warmer for later.
(Indoors if very wet!)



Parking and taxis

Parking is limited in Catton so we're asking people, if they can, to get a lift or a taxi to the village.
Then, between 9 and 11, we have a minibus taxi doing regular shuttles to Thirsk and Ripon.


  • Let us know if you'll be using our taxi shuttle to get home and reserve a place – please text David on 07595 895177


Parking

The diagram below shows the limited places to park on the verge in Catton (a torch may be handy!) 
Please be careful not to block gates.
