Hey,

Living in Norwich currently, but have only recently moved to the land of the English. Glaswegian by trade and I will probably be one of the only ones not giving a hoot about footie on the Sunday night.

23

A Phd student in analytical chemistry at the UEA.

Its my third visit to Le Mans this year and I can be found on Karting Nord. If you see a tiny but quick green mini moto flying around stop me and say hello.

Cheers

J.

Hello,

I am Felix.

I am rather old and decrepid (oh okay, 56)

I live in a chip van appearing at a venue in a high street near you.

I am a provider of seafood culinary specialities.

I try to get to Le Mans every year as there's usually loads of Brits who are fed up with tartliflete and dodgy barbeque meat and just love to come and buy my wonderful fish and chips and battered sausages from Felix's Chip Van  (you can't miss it)

As we have (hopefully) gained a few more new faces over the last few months, I thought it might be good to drag this back out of The darkness and dust it off so that all the newer members can see who and what they are getting involved with! 
 Apart from getting a few years older a few things will have changed no doubt but it will be a good starting point non the less.
