Anybody got a weather report for LE-MANS weekend
If you dont stay trackside, you miss out on the atmosphere, I wouldnt do it any other way. Facilities are not as bad as they used to be - but they are still crap
1000 euro fine and possible confiscation of car....er no I'll leave mine at home! I also think that cr*p is lenient when it comes to describing the facilities track-side!
sorry rick ... pasted the above from the "empty seat" thread. At this moment in time, i am on the 7am boat tomorrow (wed.) ... marky & simon are leaving too early for me (mid morning) so i think i may just have a lonely saunter down the A1, after lunch .... i will prob. call on family in peterborough. J's sister is cookin' dinner for me on wed. evening, so i shall prob. stay there o/night. i will see you either around midnight at the hotel, or for breakfast, early thurs. morning. Of course things may change. cheers, d ps .... how many are now staying at the hotel in whitfield nr. dover ? .... they need to be 'phoned to cancel any rooms we don't need
All packed up and ready to go - meeting my gang at 5.00am tomorrow - see you there and have a safe trip.
you lucky "so and so" .... still have to load the car ... dry my clothes etc. .... pack etc. etc. ..... looks like being 2/3 am before bed, then up at five for the early ferry. Hope it's gonna be worth it ! see you there and have a safe trip. cheers, d

Rick, simon, dave sc etc - i am ringing the hotel this aft, in dover, to cancel my room - this will leave three rooms. i) rick and si ii) mark and si iii) dave sc and one if any different, please ring the hotel yourselves ... i am sure we can totally confuse them. seez ya later. cheers, david ps ... lee, you nobhed - the tent stinks !

No dave [f308man] has been here for his tickets and tent and to use my comunications networking system and a cup of tea and a chunky steak pie he is on his way down south now in the rain on his own thanks to LEE P
Finishing work any minute now and then heading to Le Mans, see you all there. Rick PS - it's nice and sunny here.
cant wait for the drive down tmrw and some well earned beers when we get there - hard work all that driving , 6hrs solid driving , London to Le Mans. Hoping for no speeding fines, but not sure i will be able to resist the heavy foot on the odd occasion.
