Why not a blow job while you're at it?jtparr wrote:Bollocksscalino65 wrote:...in a tent, as close to the circuit as poss.
In a hotel close to the circuit...with cold beer on tap...perhaps waiter service brought out to the side of the track...snacks and a massage....

Prices come in and everyone is back in tents.
Cheap twats.
I vote Four Seasons Le Mans full board.
Joking aside. Whatever the weather camping throws up more laughs per £.
12 of us under Russ's gazebo in the teaming rain watching Peter half naked brushing his teeth in a 3.2 is a memory difficult (no matter how hard I try) to forget.
Maybe you just need Jury's vid posting again so you all remember....maybe the unedited version Chris??!!!

That £20 gazebo was a great investment although non of you fekers would give me a lift to put it up while the sun was shining .
The vision of Peter backing out of his one man tent in his boxers is burnt into my memory forever !

Great video Chris, never get bored of watching it. T'was a shame in the hotel front but don't you think for the extra private camping might be a option as you do get a marquee area to sit and have a beer also somewhere to shelter, which is slightly bigger than a £20 gazebo, no offence russ if it lashes down

Perfect soloution: Those in the posh trackside hotel can look forward to a steady flow of smelly camping scuffers nipping in for a quick shower, europoo etc. in their frankly unnecessary en-suite bathrooms. Everyone's a winner. W

Re: Classic LeMans 2016 - ideas & thoughts for DDK trip
Loved Honfluer (wee stayed an extra night as Kit broke down) which meant only one night camping at Le Mans. Maybe just as well as I remember arriving in the rain and leaving in the rain. Didn't mind the camping, got up early for a shower though. The best part was meeting up with everyone and getting to put faces to names.
Great night in Rouen with all the gang…dropped off at the ferry by a gentleman..the one and only Bootsy.
Happy to do it all again…if you'll have us

Re: Classic LeMans 2016 - ideas & thoughts for DDK trip
UPDATE ON COSTS etc :
Just keeping everyone upto date on the CLM discussions so far.:
I've just had a phone call from the company that can do the hotel with a definate price on their packages
Also, in discussion with Brian about some DDK camping elsewhere within the circuit, sort of 1/2 way house between public camping & private camping but DDK only & fully fenced in & within the circuit , but over towards the football stadium area .. more info on this to come , probabally about mid sept.
The hotel option, for those who want it, will need to be booked ASAP as the rooms are already selling fast . Currently the hotel has the Bentley Owners & W90 Porsche club booked in.
If anyone wants to book hotel rooms let me know & I'll put things in motion
Personally, I think I'm going down the camping route with stop overs @ Hon Fleur etc again
3 night Mulsanne Hotel Option
The hotel closest to the track is at Mulsanne Corner, on the outside of the circuit, literally 200 meter walk to the Mulsanne Viewing area. Includes Breakfast & any Eurotunnel crossing. Hull Zeebrugge is appox + £80pp
Fri / Sat & Sun night, based on 2 sharing a room
hotel = £480 pp
entrance tickets incl paddock approx £100pp
Total Hull = £660pp
Total Tunnel = £500pp
based on 2 in a car / sharing
Public camping :
camping and tickets = £120pp ( 240 per car )
Hull ferry = £280
Tunnel = £130
Total Hull = £260pp
Total Tunnel = £185pp
Private camping ( incl tickets) :
Total Tunnel = £390pp
Total Hull = £395pp
