Hmm - practicing photography huh? It was so much fun staying indoors and watching the end of the race on TV when I should have been on the Mulsanne roundabout watching them come straight at me at 180mph - not. Anyway, photographing cars behind a pace car isn't really my thing. However, quite frankly I'm damned if I'm going to risk thousands of pounds worth of gear just for a few photos. As we all know, the rain was so heavy that it would have (and did!) get in everywhere, so it was galling but - there's always next year! But I did post in February that it would be a wet race - ask me again next year!

Lynxd,

June has always been a rather 'fickle' month weatherwise, but it's funny that I can only remember the really good dry ones.  Does that mean the rest were crap? In my book NO, but then this June, as I'm sitting here whatching 'stairrods' out of the window I'm beginning to wonder.

When you originally forcasted a wet one, what was the base criteria of your forcast?

Did you used to work for the Met Office and you were sidelined because you were always right unlike the Mr. Fish episode.

On a serious note, the answer is actually weird. I live at Le Mans and know pretty well the fickle nature of the weather here, but three times in Feb to April I dreamt of a wet race. I've never dreamt of Le Mans before but the same dream three times quite disturbed me. I am not making things up or joking here - I could put you in touch with my marshal friends who would bear me out. Please don't ask me to understand it or explain it since it is 38 years since my first Le Mans and I find it as bizarre as anyone else.

Well, I think that P=Piston and Tetes certainly=heads. I appreciate your senility dear new member and hope that you remember nothing of Lemons this year. Did you manage to get the car properly scripted in French and did it dissolve in the deluge?

aha ... it's taken six weeks, but i think i have the jist of things now.

lynx dear chap, as hard as i try, i find nowhere to escape your diction .... and of course, i didn't mean the above, regarding your practicing   

the car did not get letterred up .... we headed south after le mans and chose not to lower the tone in casino square (for a change).

cheers for now, old man.
