Le Mans & W H Smiths
« on: January 19, 2009, 09:06:19 pm »

What have these in common I hear your shout, well no, Smiths are not sponsering or selling camping tickets nor are the ACO selling newspapers......yet

BUT if you rush down to your local W H Smiths as quick as possible, they are currently selling a "Racing Through Time - The History of Le Mans" at half price. from £14.99 to £7.49. This will get a 50 min DVD and a smallish brochure charting the history of the race.

So far I have not seen the DVD, I am waiting for a good downpour before pitching a tent in the garden and getting several small bottles of beer warmed up before half cooking a horse burger on a BBQ and getting the local yobs to race up and down the road on their 20cc scooters.  ::) :o :o

They are also selling a history of F1, steam trains and many others in the collection.

Sounds like a good way to spend an hour.

Watching the DVD that is, not sitting in your garden while the locals tear up your road.
Some people will tell you that slow is good - and it may be, on some days - but I am here to tell you that fast is better.

Is it any good Andy?

Cramming the history of LM 24 into 50 minutes would be some achievment.
