I got my parking tickets from http://www.1st-tickets.co.uk/events/lmpricessd.html

Highly recommend these guys, just give them a call and theyll sort you out.

ferry - booked
white car park ticket - booked
general entry ticket - booked
grandstand - not yet - do i need to?
time off work - booked
credit card at its limit - oops!

really looking forward to a holiday different to my usual

i am getting the 7am ferry on 7th. I live in Kent an hour from dover so if anyone is coming from up north and wants to stay the night before you are more than wlecome to my spare room/floor/tent in back garden...

[unowho]

Well done Sloopeh/Jon? You will love it

I think most of us that are on the 7.00 Ferry on the Tuesday are staying in the Premier Inn on the Monday night £29 per room, a bargain to what we normally paid at the White 'Shaging' Rabbit But thanks for offer, someone may take you up on it.

Have also sent another email to Dominique provisonally booking Pitch No: 4, for those arriving after us

6 1/2 weeks to go

ok so looks like i am booked a day before everyone else - no probs

and yes it's Jon

[Kieran Williams]

Dont worry Jon, myself,Lynn,Jason and Cheryl are on the 0700 ferry on the 7th, best way to spot us is the big motorhome with a white over silver supercharger being towed behind it!

Jason's bringing the SC? That means no more rental car action!!

Debs, I believe when Alison booked her first pitch she also booked parking tickets via Dominique. Seeing as you're in contact with him for booking pitches do you think you could book another parking ticket for me and Kev?

Edit: I don't even know what day we're booked for going, left that all to my driver lol

[toxo]

OK, due to exciting new developments I am now going in my car and the passenger seat is free. Any takers, probably means you can do the whole trip for about £400 for your share of fuel, etc.

Yes Jason is towing the SC

Will be in contact with Alison, although Mike and I have been in discussion about sharing parking tickets, as normal cars going we could car share? But will check to see how amny tickets she has reserved though and be in contact

Fans of having a car which isn't filthy might be interested to know that I've picked up a rather splendid Hozelock Portashower (or, Douche Portable, according to the foreign bit) which I used to clean the Lupo the other day. The results were very positive - a good spray or jet action, and three fills of its 5L tank was enough to do the whole car to a decent standard.

It was £20 from Halfords, and we'll definitely be bringing it to Le Mans with us.

[toxo]

Tremendous, you can clean my car for me

[mazdachris]

I just checked the manual and it says I can't, sorry

[unowho]

Well as I have had no one else contact me, we will be going with the 3 already booked up pitches, I had booked a 4th, but will sned and email to Domninique cancelling that one.

I have again changed me mind and am now going, again!!!! just need to get me bum in gear and get stuff sorted......

not long now 4 weeks

Debs

PS Jon/Sloopeh, your pitch is booked under my name, (altough will inform Dominique who is also sharing that pitch), you will need to let Dominique know this when you arrive, Ki can point you in the right direction of where we camp, as I take it you are now following them.

[sloopeh]

i used to live close to le mans so will be paying a visit to my old home on the way so i will be turning up later.

i cant wait for this trip

[Ekona]

Tickets arrived today!


It seems that little bit closer and more real now

[sloopeh]

is anyone stickering up their two? thought i might go with some viper stripes...

[Ekona]

You have to sticker your car up, it's the law!* I get mine from Dan at Hollographics, really good chap and the quality is incredible.









*It's not the law, but you really should anyway
