 Dont want to upset you Mike,but I am having a sort out and came across an old ticket, Have a look at the DATE!!

That was indeed the 24th weekend though!!! Never worked that out before, Thanks Paddy!

And the 24th weekend is again the 16-17th of June in 2007!!!!

ooooohhhh!! that brings back vaugue (drunken) memories.. my first le mans!!

I have to admit that I always felt the race was most likely to take place around the second weekend of June - 11th 12th 13th that sort of time (making the 9th and 10th next year a very real contender.) It is only recently that it seems to be the week later, which I think was influenced by the timing of some races in the American Le Mans series?? And for what it is worth, I remember going one year and it was the end of May (31st to 1st June) Think it might have been 1986?? I will not be booking the ferry quite yet.

Do I remember this was an election year and the usual date clashed.  Summat like that.

I someone got the time to see how long ago and if it did not happen on the 24th weekend??

My Outlook calendar goes back that far, I've just been scrolling back through the years.

It was actually quite weird watching the years roll back and either remembering or imagining what was going on at the time, especially around the wars!
