Who, what, where and when? I keep asking myself why.
There is a corner of a foreign field that will be forever England ------ Houx Annexe
  
And the bastards have built on it.

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.

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

Out on the Pompy ferry to Caen Tuesday night, back on the Sunday night.

Staying on Houx.

Just me and my son Tristan (13 and on his 4th Le Mans).

T will probably be wearing his Fez around the ferry bar and Le Mans (it was a feather boa last year).

Say hi if you want any advice on Dr Who, the Beano, bar room lawyer views on discrimination of children (childism apparently), who's going to win LM, and how lost he's going to get us on the navigation down (no toll roads, no sat nav, just maps - well he is a Scout). Just make sure that you have a chair,  ;D he doesn't know what brevity is.

Aricus (and Tristan)

so are you saying avoid a 13 year old in a Fez, unless we have a spare 1hour?

and I bet your glad he does not drink, yet (or may be he does)

Sounds like you will both have fun, anyway  ;D

Neil,

Yes, Tristan is good fun, and yes, the conversation can take some time.

He's not a shy retiring one - he may also be wearing a feather boa (sorry to anyone in the bar on the way back that he "feathered").

He's not on the beer yet so I can depend on his getting us back.
