notifcation of camping allocation

[Barry]

Anybody know what's going on at the ACO? I've just been allocated camping tickets for the site I asked for, Bleu, and not put on the waiting list. Yippee.

VIVE LA FRANCE!!

Better go start checking the camping kit.

[Mr Toad]

Proof that there is a God! I wonder if they have created any new sites this year to give more capacity?

[Steve Pyro]

     
Good old ACO.
Confirmation arrived this morning (not on the waiting list either)

8 camping allocations in Houx Annexe so we'll see you again JP.
ACO price 32 euro (2003 31 euro)
Normal price 37 euro (2003 price 35 euro)

Also 6 tickets for Tribune 6 Sommer (was Tribune 04)
Price 83 euro (2003 price 80 euro)

So no dramatic price increase then!

Well would you believe it.PM and the WANCs have been allocated Maison Blanche as requested.
Bloody great race the French!!What I wouldnt give to be spat at in the face!!My idea of 'eaven would be to be in manacles!!
At least Rick will know what the hell im talking about.

Bri,
    I must write to David Blunkett and congratulate him on the sucess of his one to one special needs education programme particularly here in the north west . you are a credit . I remember the time when you couldn't count past four. Particularly when it was your round!!
         

[Mr Toad]

"Felix's chippy area"? Are you telling me there was a chippy van on MB last year?

[smokie]

Felix had enough space for a couple of chippy lorries but never showed. The space was vacant till about Friday IIRC

  Hopefully somebody can honestly tell me not to worry yet,    but I note that most, if not all, of those that have recieved notification are ACO members,  does this mean that although I've been notified of my request for tickets as a non member I have to go on some sort of waiting list for unrequired tickets that have been sent back?
 
 One other point, my original application was higher than is now needed {why do people f**k you about?}  would it help my cause if I was to contact them with the amended number, which is quite a few less
 Your,  experienced, opinions will be appreciated

[powermite]

There is not a definite answer to this one.
I have been to PQ for the past 5 or 6 years and when there I have ordered tickets for the following year,therefore 13 months in advance!!Even though io'm a member I have never been given the site i requested.
In 2002 i ordered my tickets and the next day Smokie ordered his,he got what he wanted and I didnt.
In May 2003 I ordered for 2004 and against all odds,I have been offered and now paid for the tickets i requested.
As far as quantity goes,I have until this year always ordered 6 camping tickets but this year i only ordered 3,Maybe that made the difference.
Howvwer my mates who have the www.popemobile.com always get their exact requirements even to the extent that when the pope rang to check on the allocation,the ACO told him not to worry as they give him the same tickets every year,even without ordering officially.
Work that out!!

I asked for 8 camping for Houx Annexe for 2003 in 2002 and was put on the waiting list (got them in the end from the ACO).

I again asked for 8 camping for Houx Annexe for 2004 and have been allocated them.

[Ruptured Duck Motorsport]

Well, I'll wait until May to hear about mine still....

I dont care - ferry is booked  

[powermite]

This must be a first.Tickets ordered,allocated,paid for and final confirmation and payment receipt and all before 2004 has even begun.
Love the ACO.Allez Les Bleus!!!!
