I do hope mine arrived as well, having ordered them over a week ago ::)
I have given up on being on facebook and myspace, I kept mixing them up and invited people to come on Myface!

Pre-sale's now closed but tickets at the gate are €15 and Paddock's another €15, so still a cheap day out for me.  ;D

The weather was great today. Tomorrow and sat. bring sunscreen, it is going to be warm. Sneaked in to the pitlane just before practice got underway, pretty cool spot to, just next to the audi pitbox. No admitance today which was great as my tickets had not arrived yet. Luckily I got a spare one at the accreditation center.

Campingwise, I would like to suggest P3, nice shady area, just head for P1 and take a right into the forrest area. We will be there around 10 am, will scout the area, if it is to full around the time you guys arrive, we can always go to P2, which has a nice grassy flat area, with plenty space today for cars and tents.

We will meet you there, just give us a ring when you get close!

Le Mans - the how you get there is not quite as important as being there.

Get a little camping fridge and plug it in next to your sofa.

View from the sofa was pretty good, but i would much rather have been track side. No atmosphere on the sofa, loads of comfort though. The race weekend feel was not there (lack of washing, far too much larger and petrol fumes). Have to make up for it in Le Mans 8 days of sheer pleasure.
