Unless of course you are carrying perishable items like acouple of boxes of cabbages etc!!!!

So I belive!!!
Nah, that's a rule from several years ago. Somewhere '96 they changed the law on that, now you need a permit for every vehicle above 7,5 tonnes to drive on Sunday in France...  :-\

Speaking to brad he says" Tell him to get the TVR before arranging other things"
Hum - TVR is starting to look a longer term thing, :'( might end up being a bigger rag top - A4 or 900 - 9-3. 8) in the short term.

Normally PQ uses P16 for parking and camping, but this year the ACO site shows this as "cancelled" so maybe they are planning on doing something differently as the two dates are so close together.

Perhaps this year you can arrive at Maison Blanche two weeks before the race??

Hmm, I would like to go for the weekend, to go back home Sundaynight for a week. You recon it's worth giving the ACO a ring about this?

I would like to go there to look at the situation and figure out where to stand before we take off by truck on 12th of June...

Here's my guess. The Golden triangle is the two toilet blocks towards the bottom where MB used to finish. Behind those blocks is where you will find myself, Powerite, gab, Canada Phil and other reporbates.

I've ringed what I would guess to be the area generally occupied by the Porsche Curve Pirates, Popmobile and others. Last year Mr Toad would have been just off shot, about half way down the left hand side, withe the Liverpool Boys, JP Chenet, Ferrari Spider (where he?), Big H, RS2babe and lots of others even further off the left hand side of the shot.

Robbo's crew were off shot, sort of south west of the picture, behind the trees. I think Andy Z was in that general area too.

But then again...I could be wrong  ??? ???

So was DelBoy's crew - not far from Robbo.
