And somebody (might be same as cheapo Bentley flag person - can't remember) is flogging this year's tickets and contremarques. It was different when the entrance tickets were mini event posters, I stopped saving mine when that stopped happening. Any one for some genuine Le Mans grass found when unpacking my tent?  Still got some French flies on the nose of the Pug (recalcitrant bleeders!) in case of interest to someone! |

Rickmeister... I picked up a nasty skin rash which I'm happy to swap you for that grass... you can keep the flies though, you may be able to revive them by letting them feed on the rash... |

Makes you wonder what the "unoffical" poster is worth doesn't it...
A lawsuit from the ACO.....? Did anyone ever hear anything more from them on that matter, or did they get a sense of humour and take it in the intended spirit of the thing? |

Sod it, if others are making a killing out of Le Mans stuff on ebay, then I am going to join them. I have a spare poster or two and loads of other stuff. Might as well put them to good use ! |

Morning chaps,
A good photo Andy, I'm a little worried about your brother though. Does his head go all the way to the top of his cap? (it could be that the cap/head got flatter as the weekend progressed?)
Whilst on about dodgy photos, we had a few taken in the Antares building by the press.
After crashing into this posh do, and listening to a few speeches, the President of the ACO thought I was naturally worth a handshake and a photo. Out of pic, on the right was the Mayor of Le Mans, gossiping about goats and a colleague in Alencon. I'll treasure my copy forever.
As soon as I raised the subject of viewing areas and camping facilities with the president, two gorillas grabbed me by the arms and frogmarched into a dank basement, where I was plied with champagne, canapes, soft toilet roll and grilled by some stooges under a naked bulb about a dark green Comma, booze crazed Brits and a slightly superior 'official poster'.
It's a few weeks ago now, my fingernails have started to grow back and the prosthetic ear doesn't half look bad. Although in my opinion, not shared by the surgeon, is that it would look better on my head.

Morning H
Good to hear from you, although I expect you'll have trouble hearing anything else again, what with your ear problems etc. I expect you look like that mouse on the telly a few years ago. The one where a mad scientist grew a big human ear on it's back. Maybe you should have had a donkeys ear grafted on for comic effect. Then we could call you BottomH.
Will you be posting your photo of you pressing the flesh with Pres Cossin of the ACO? I'm sure I speak for all of us when I say we would all like to see it.
Finally my brothers head remains a total no go area for me. I think it does for him too. I'll get him a policemans helmet next year.
PS The French apparently have absolutely no idea who John Inman is. Remarkable.

Le Mans be buggered. You don't fool me. You are at Royal Ascot! Even a dope like me can spot the clue!
Is this the Royal Enclosure? I guess it must be Ladies day, which why you were wearing such a hat to rival any creation by Mrs Shilling.
