It was a absolute pleasure meeting you all. You are all a very fine bunch of gents (and ladies of course) indeed! See you all next year, yeah?

Oops

We started walking from Mulsanne just after 9am.. and by midday only just reached the funfair... By then we were tired and hot and bothered and thought the meet would be over so did not enter the village area.

Will have to try again next time!

Yes, next time we need to set off at 6am!

Clearly suffered from n00b syndrome there - and discovered exactly how blimmin' big Le Mans actually is!

Maybe next year, we'll try and do half of Nurburgring in under 8 hours.

It was good to see all the old faces again and meet many new ones. Looking forward to seeing the photos. A very good turnout this year and hopefully we will all be back again next year.

As others have said it is like meeting distant family once a year. Great to see you all again, can't wait to see you all again next year. (No really, I can't wait, there is no way it can be 51 weeks away - aargh!)

Would have made it too but someone had to look after the Speedchills Girls, after running the site at Bleu Sud for three days solid it was a pleasure to get trackside on Saturday, I did try to get them to come to the meeting too but the photographs had to be taken on the grid, so I was on the pitwall "minding" the girls. Sorry to have missed it agin but as you can see I was busy!

Sorry guys - missed meet - due to showing seven LM virgins the ropes.
They are now all hooked and have vowed to return next year!

Oh my !!! Ker, did I... ? I still have some of your pics and Cleo (my daughter) started to use some as wallpapers...

And at one point, I was on the verge to ask if you were around !

Why didn't you say to me :"hey, moron, do you recognize me ?"

I'm sooooo disapointed that we didn't have time to have a proper conversation... and it's so short !

362 days and counting...

Guys and Girls,
Great to meet most of you again, and I vow to make the most of posting more often. So here goes. After five years since my first meet incl. Fab and Ayse, and last year bringing Michele and little James, I am gonna contribute as a regular....

Fantastic photos Bernard - a great momento of a very nice precursor to the race.

Like especially in the group photo that I am the most obscured face thus can maintain my blissful anonymity!
