Good stuff Loz, the pit passes would be incredible!! Fingers crossed...

The 'cottage' looks good as well, wish I was a fishing type! How long do you reckon to drive to the circuit, under an hour?

Myself, Graeme (G), David, Ken and Loz are coming over from Dover to Calais about 2pm on Thursday 10th, staying in Le Touquet that night, heading down to fishingloire.com about 2pm on the Friday. Saturday night, myself and G might stay in the circuit and camp (we say this every year, and every year we pitch a tent on our mates plot, but have yet to stay once!) We will head back on the Monday morning for Calais.

So we should be sleeping at the house Friday 11th / Saturday 12th / Sunday 13th

Cant wait, its my highlight of the year, just hope I dont have to come back on the tow truck again this year, with bits of clutch fingers in my pocket!

Guys,
I'll be staying in Le Lude on the Friday and Saturday nights. Perhaps we can meet up some time.

 

[lozcb]

For sure Keith , Arnage on Friday sounds good , the lunchtime drive by is a good watch outside table with a cold beer and a sarny , if its sunny life doesn,t get better , we'll organise some mobile phone no swapping before we leave Keith

Le Lude, know it well. Each year I have done it (3 so far) we have always gone to a restaurant in Le Lude, cant remember what the name is, but it right on the river, right next to the bridge over the river.

I am up for some Arnage this year on the Friday. We have to come from Le Touchet, so we will not be able to make it by noon, but 2 should be doable.

We are looking at 4-5 hrs and Rouen is always a nightmare, so if we leave at 9.30, we should be bang on for 2pm.

Goinf to be a flying vosit for me, Friday afternoon crossing so late arrival - 4hrs from Calais sound about right? Then need to have my mate back at work Monday morning so Sunday night crossing back, almost wish I was going on my own now

Never done Le Mans Dover-Calais...
