Can't believe it's already 20 years ago.

I can't believe it has been 20 years either, though it is a testament to the level of safety in F1 these days. Sounds like it is going to be a fantastic tribute though.

Eeek, 20 years.

Can remember hearing the news in my Dad's car on the way back from relatives in Wakefield.

Wow I can't believe how quickly that has gone. I can remember being camped out in front of the tv with my Dad watching the race.

I'd love to go but realistically it's a no.

I wish! No photos, no sharing! I did see some of the photos taken though, magic hour and a mp4/4 looking over the lake, absolutely brilliant, tried to chat up the rather fit photographer but she was having none of it.
