I wish we had arranged to come today.
I have heard of ANOTHER meet taking place at the 'ring!
FFS - The queue for the track will be massive!
Maybe I can start my laps at Breidscheid

Ian,
How can I puke on the ferry when I'm taking the Chunnel?
I'm sure it'll be fairly quiet tomorrow and it's always quiet at "my" time of day.... The rain is fun too...... (except for Karl with his tyres that don't work in the wet....)

Great great weekend ......
Nice to meet you all again ...even you Karl lol. Thanks for the passenger lap and sitting behind you made a big difference to my driving and was good enough to get me down into 8 minute status driving. Not bad for an old french clutter 205.
Thanks also to the exige boys and girls for waving to me while i sat in the hard shoulder of the E40 by Liege. Something strange was going on with the steering so i decided to take a trip back on a car transporter. Its also a good way to save petrol
Nice to have met you Matt .... car sounded good mate i have to say.
Roll on the next time, which for me is 17th - 20th sept. Might invest in a trailer before then though

Finally made it to Britanny after 8 and a half hours of caning it across France at more than 100 mph - naughty. Clare got done by a speed camera oops.
Got some tyres before we left and our brake pads just managed to get us there with 1mm left!!
See you in September, I have 30 degree heat and a golden beach to go to now
