Done  ;D  £23 including a handling charge ( ::))

Amusingly the website has a line for booking fee on it which says 0 all the way through and then it dumps a handling charge on at the end whilst the booking fee still says 0.  That's a pedantic difference even for a pedant like me!!

Anyway, it says they send tickets first class so I should have it in plenty of time (famous last words....).  We can sort out handover at the time, I'm sure it will be straightforward...

Aparently the 'handling charge' covers the postage ... (I asked!) .... Wish someone would pay me £3 for a first class stamp!

As Paddy said, I would be glad to come over to the main gate, or anywhere else you would like to meet.

We could just try the '05-trick. Back then I picked up Sander and the rest of PLM from the press-carpark and drove straight into the Paddock. When stopped we waved some cards and said we were in some kind of hurry ;D

If RockerRiert, Knetter and I wear Spyker gear and wave the Le Mans - Friday invitation, we might get away with it and drive straight through to the Paddock again :D

"wave and drive" is always a good technique for getting in anywhere!

We once drop into the paddock at Spa on a LM Classic Press parking pass  ;D

Yep no problem Paddy, also I imagine Termie will be there for Friday so we can give her the ticket to take to Whittlebury to save too much faffing?

I'll be arriving some time during Friday, will watch whatever track action interests me then pitch up at Whittlebury.  Piglet, I'll pm you my UK mobile number and we can catch up whenever.

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