Le Mans Classic - who is going?

[Doris]

I think she knows that, Bob - that's why she added the smiley at the end!!

Del

Indeed Del.  I believe optimists call it 'living in hope' while pessimists would just say I'm dellusional. 

Doris, as much as I would like to see it I think you have got more chance of winning a "Look at my beautiful long hair, just like Barbie" competition.

At 3/4 of an inch you never know.

First DfH-crew will arrive Saturdays a week before race, the truck and the shopping-cart will be there on monday.

Hope they've got their bolt cutters - the campsite won't be open until Wednesday?

[LangTall]

I should read correctly before I write, now I notice the word 'Classic' in the subject. Damn me....

Hey LT, did you get my PM through the DfH forum??

[Rusty]

I'll be down with Simon, Stumpy and the lads. Stay at Alencon in a very cute auberge.

[Barry]

Just had a look at the new booking form.
Karting Nord is the only camping site being offered, so presume MB is sold out.
Confirms grandstands all gone but they are considering temporary structures.
Looks like a big crowd this year, if the locals surpport the event.

Barry, I think there will be a lot of Brits there too.
The Triumph Sports Six Club have exclusive use of Tertre Rouge camping, there's a lot of the Cobra Replica Club on MB.

Will the ACO restrict access to the pits and paddocks?

Don't know about the pits, but I think we will be lucky to have the same access as last time.
Paddock passes ordered when I ordered tickets months ago, still available if you book in advance, they are repeating the jacket and tie rule for gentleman though.
I don't own a suitable jacket, hate ties and I don't know if the ACO would regard me as a gentleman

Does anybody know the sartorial rules for wearing jacket, tie and shorts. ;

In a previous life, when I was in the merchant navy, our tropical uniform was white shorts, white short sleeved shirt with epaulettes, no tie, white socks (not a pith hat though!)

Do you think they'll let me in?

[Fran]

Just sneak past em while they are doubled up laughing Steve!

No, you're not wearing a tie.

   I'll have you know that I'm an officer and a gentleman
