Anywhere on here or Internet of seeing squads?

No, they just sort everybody out on the day. They'll have squad details if you phone them, but I've never seen them online.

Thanks, here this is a good shoot so should be well worth the drive

Yes, it is a great shoot, probably my favourite of the year, probably helped by the weather which has been good for the last few years at least.

I drive down from Manchester early in the morning and back the same evening, which is a bit of a ballache, and I tend to start fading away in the second half of the afternoon session. Bit of a long day really, but when I have stayed the night before, I've had a sh*te nights sleep in cheap hotel beds, so I've felt worse than I do when I drive down same morning :wacko:

And when someone books the hotel in a different county you have sh*te nights sleep and a long drive combined... ;-p

I totally agree. I never stay the night before a shoot as I don't sleep well anyway. Even for the British at Fauxdegla last year we drove up on the day from swindon

Out of interest how many stands do they have on each layout, also how many in a squad

Usually 12-14 stands per layout and squads of six
