The Moose has finally found his way home. Another great year. Thanks to all who made it possible and fun for me to attend.
Hope not to leave anyone out. Chris 24 for delivering me from Portsmouth and returning to Reading. Stu MikeC & Norway Nick plus Wayne for campsite comaraderie and food fest. The Bretheren for their continuous party and .....mobile. Werner for being first to hand me a cold beer in a glass DFH for their continuous party.Chris Phil and Dave for a great day out on Friday to St Saturnin and the  drivers parade.
Tom for flagpole delivery and return.
Devon was sunny and Dad is doing as well as can be expected.
Canada Phil   

plus if you think I'm hard to understand, wait till the Haggis Munchers turn up next year.

Excuse me Stu, I resemble that remark

It doesn't seem like a week since we arrived back from a great LM. I would like to say thanks firstly to Nick for the use of has caravan and putting up with my snoring (Stu was louder and he was outside). To Stu thanks for being camp cook. It was a great weekend and the company of Phil a Wayne(Stu's Bitch) was great. Just wait till next year when hopfully the Liverpool Boys are back in strength,with the Scottish branch.
Thanks to Andy on the last night for a nice drop of Cognac, it went well with the cheese.

No wonder Gordon Ramsey moved down south.

Well we had a great time again and I think our four virgins did too. It was great to meet up with old friends and to make some new ones, can't wait for next year!
Can someone explain something to me... why is there never anything in the English press about Le Mans?

The dismal England football performance against the USA would have probably overshadowed this years event.

If my holidays allow and I make it next year I will supply Haggis,neeps and tatties no problem and maybe some Plum Duff (which does not contain even a hint of plums)for afters

There was an article in the Saturday Daily Telegraph Motoring section (26/06) - admittedly it wasn't a lot but at least it was something!! You would think it would deserve a great deal more attention.

Why is it that I can't ever concentrate on anything Stu posts?

I often wonder about this and feel like writing to the sports editors to tell them to get their fingers out but then I think to myself why? It's OUR event and a lot of what makes Le Mans great is the interaction and camerarderie between like minded sportscar fans from all over the world. Frankly, and I know this is a bit selfish, but I'd rather it stayed like it is with new people joining in because they've heard about it from US, not the massed ranks of the press. It's getting corporate enough as it is and I'm sure none of us want it turning into the mess that has become F1.
Lets all keep quiet eh?

Just managing to get back to normal is taking time, but what a week !! Fantastic for so many reasons,
1. The quattro made it both ways within only a turbo pipe coming off on the way down just outside Rouen hampering progress for a while, until we fixed it with a few jubilee clips.

2. I managed to fulfill my duties as a course marshall all week despite the cancer that's trying to eat my spine . I've already applied for next years race so it isn't going to find things too easy !!
 
3.The next two pictures of a dead Peugeot and a driver with a face liked a smacked arse says it all as when this happened Audi were 1-2. It could only get better !!

Not looking too happy on this one !!

As Audi were showing their A1 I thought I'd show them what a real A1 Audi looked like !!

Cheers Kev,  you missed a good one mate, are you doing Cholmondely? I'll be there on the quattro stand on Sat and Sun so would be good to meet up!
Or we could get a night out organised, you're good at that sort of thing !!

[Chris24]

Good pictures there Gordon, I like them. I did try calling your number on the Thursday but wasn't too sure on the last digit, so i tried both options i had, one wasn't recognised and the other went through to some French answer message, so i decided it was pointless walking down to Terte Rouge if i was unable to contact you.

Thanks for the offer anyway.

Regards
Chris
