I remember turning up on a half empty Maison Blanche on my first occassion in '94 and looking around us we suddenly realised that we had forgotten three key things: (1) a barbecue, (2) food, (3) beer.
I left Pete sobbing on the campsite and made an emergency dash for supplies, finding a small supermarket on the main road into town which had obviously been ransacked by CA members. I grabbed two packs of brioche buns and three packs of warm stubbies. Hopeless but it got us through the first night.
Moral of the story for newbies: Read the Club Arnage guide and stop at Carrefour on the way in!
I tested negative for patience.

BJ might be miles from anything but we all remember our first time don't we? How good was that?
Camping in an old septic tank at the bottom of a lake, eating cold gravel off t'road wouldn't have ruined that first Le Mans experience for me. You lucky bugger. Wish it were my first time again. Enjoy!

Well said LB.

Doris, I saw your name on this thread any thought you were checking in. Any chance? It would be fantastic if you could make it.

Hello!  KK and I will be there for the first time in I'm not quite sure how many years - 4 perhaps?   

Camping on MB (thanks Mal), probably arriving on Wednesday in Tinkerbell the 1976 Landrover (or the back of a breakdown truck...)

Will be fab to see everyone  ;D

(thanks for the ferry code Neil - just about to book Brittany Poole/Cherbourg so very welcome  ;D)

I'll be there on BN where ever team languistine decide to put me probably not far from the brethren.
The Eurotunnel ticket has been booked for months. arriving late Thursday (in the Frogey as usual).
As long as les flics dont mind me pottering about on a stick or two (ziss homme looks decidedly dodgy) I will be mostly pottering around BN avec Le garyfrogeye
Knew Knee should be serviced and running by the end of March (op in February)
Here I comes mind the stick!
Bugge RRR
I have had to give up on the Knee op this month so it's by no means certain I will be up to walking around by June... We'll see :(
I am still hoping to make it, might have to look for a Chauffeuer...
Life likes to kick you in the harsse dunnit

Hope it sorts out the right way for you - otherwise, get Gary to strap a leccy go-kart to the Frogeye to use when you get there!
