Maison Blanche tickets for 2009

[Andy Zarse]

Ah I see, and how terribly perspicacious of you. The last time I saw Brad he was indeed doing something horrible across a dralon three piece. IIRC, he was wearing ladies pants.

fortunately, I do believe the only photos of men wearing womens undies are in fact of Andy....

It's not true that we dropped Rob at Pilot Zarse's party.....he managed to try and sleep half in, half out of the tent at 8pm, all by himself......

I used to be a Zarse but apparently I've been dropped. I suspect it's something to do with Pilot Zarse's party.

What an utter load of shite
Your mop bucket full of Tropicomatilda was fab... dont listen to the voices....

Not so Brad.  Photographic evidence exists of other Zarses in womens attire ...

Small update. Apparently all agents got no more than 25 tickets each for MB, despite how many they ordered. The ACO is still "looking at the spaces" (what more do they need to see?! ), and it can take up to two months before the race untill they make up their mind. I would say they are trying to sell tickets to the racing teams first for VIP areas, and then sell the rest to us - poor fans.

We are still in the race for the tickets, and it could well be we will get a phonecall soon, according to the agent (T&T in Amsterdam). As I will be gone for nearly a month, I have given them the phone number of Marius. I honestly don't expect a phone call though, it's taken too long and by the looks of it, the ACO is being funny again. This whole scenario might explain the empty spaces on MB last year on Friday night - barely anybody will buy tickets two months before the race.

Sorry guys 'n gals, all I could do was try

I'm sure I've mentioned before but the coachload of (young male  ) Danes opposite us last year said they bought their tickets from the Rotunde on their way in to the campsite - it's a bit blurred now but I think they arrived on Tuesday. 

The trouble is how on earth do you know if it's going to be possible to get tickets last minute and do you waste an allocation elsewhere if you can get them.

[Rusty]

That's all very well if you're turning up in small numbers, but hopeless if when there's a large contingent to plan for.

[Bas]

With almost all campsites now having numbered pitches, larger groups will probably have to resort to the few non-numbered sites which are small (TR and Expo) or too far away BSJ.

[knetter]

I wouldn't be surprised if that is their aim, get rid of the big groups and dump em on a remote campsite as not to disturb french plonkers with their whole family!

[Bas]

Thing is knetter that there are not many French "plonkers" that camp at the 24h anyway.

I am sometimes at the French endurance-info forum and there are hardly any folk there that are even interested in camping at the 24h.

[Rusty]

There was a fair few that pitched up on the verges of HA last year from friday onwards, they even sent a guy round in a large lawn mower to give it all a trim.

Hi Paddy,

no matter what the outcome will be, thanks for trying and keeping us up-to-date. Nice to read a posting from you again, you've been quite lately, but me too, I have to admit.

Cheers
