Well worth watching

My son and I watched that a couple of nights ago. Interesting, but too long and too much talking......

That's a terrific film Simon. I don't recall seeing it before. Brilliant quality for 1963.

It was a new one for me to, had forgotten Mr Hill was the lead driver in the jet Rover BRM to be honest.

Really enjoyed that, nothing changed. You can feel the great atmosphere.

Shared this on Mulsanne's Corner on FB so apologies if you've already seen it, but my girlfriend organised a stay-at-home Le Mans. Sandwich Americain for lunch, overpriced beer on tap!

[GT6]

looks good but are you going to sit there for the next 2 and a half weeks?, then again nothing much else happening.

[Aysedasi]

Brilliant, but I can't see any merguez on the menu? By the way, I forgot to wish you a happy birthday!

Saw this on FB, Gingers. Nicely done!! We do what we can to keep us going!!

[Adam43]

That’s a bit like my basement during the actual LM last year. I had to stay at home then.
But I was safe in the knowledge I would do Sebring. Oh

Looks fun.

[whitemr2]

She's a keeper.

[rich07]

Yeah put a ring on that finger!

Very cool

[GT6]

Not sure best place to put this but just seen a report that Paul Trustwell (trussers) is rather unwell, i think all on this forum wish him all the best and hope he makes a full recovery.

The very best and full speedy recovery! It will not be the same without him on RLM.

Paul posted this on his BLOG

Let's hope that the treatment is successful.

My employer insisted I took my holidays this week, so my wife and I are now on holidays in our country in a B&B. As much as I am feeling sorry for myself, she probably is the one I need to feel sorry for. WHY? I can't help myself saying 'normally at this time today I.......... 'go to scruteneering, autograph session, training, qualifiing, supermarkt, etc etc'' and she puts up with me. All the respect to my wife.

Yes, I saw it last night John and posted on his blog. It's horrible news and knowing Paul personally (as some of us do), I think we all wish him well for a full recovery.

Indeed, Trussers is one of the good guys, we need all the good guys we can get at this point.

[S griffin]

Trussers has done so much for Le Mans. Fingers crossed he gets through this

[Kpy]

Really sad news.
Hoping he makes a full recovery.

Another one for the list: The Classic British Welcome in Saint Saturnin, normally held on the friday during raceweek, has been cancelled.
Due to Covid-19 and/or the fact that there now is track-action on the friday.
When I saw the new schedule for the 24 Hours, I feared this was going to (not) happen.

[Aysedasi]

They did post a month or two back that they may have to cancel. I've been the last four years I think, and it has ranged from the excellent to 'let anything in' dull. Quite good last year though, and it's something to do on the Friday morning (as well as being a short walk from our normal morning watering hole..... ).

[GT6]

It is a shame that they have had to cancel, the event raises a considerable amount for the school each year, always go and always find some interesting cars, although in recent years the classic cars seem to have been swamped by far to many modern sports? cars that are allowed in, much preferred the days of old cars and oddities rather than, fields of porsche, bmw and modern cars.
