Title: 1Parking Rouge+2 General Admissions for sale Post by: DavidsDad on April 13, 2005, 12:17:24 am Until yesterday, David and I were REALLY looking forward to our first Le Mans together. I last went in 2000, but he's been asking me to take him with me since he was a nipper. He's 11 and a half, and we've both been waiting years until me and his mum agreed he was old enough to cope with at least some of the tiredness, noise and hustle & bustle of the great 24 hours.
Needless to say, something has come up and we can't go. :-X I've got a ticket for one vehicle at Parking Rouge, cost 19 Euros, and 2 adult General Admission tickets at 59 Euros each, bought from ACO. I just want to recoup my costs. Call it £90.00 the lot. :'( :'( :'( Title: Re:1Parking Rouge+2 General Admissions for sale Post by: Steve Pyro on April 13, 2005, 12:21:02 am That's a major catastroscope.
I'll be interested in the GAs if you consider spliting them.

Next year then. Hrumph >:( Yes, Steve, I'll split and at least get back most of it, even if the Parking Rouge doesn't go. Send me an email for details. DavidsDad.

Better luck next year :) Title: Re:1Parking Rouge+2 General Admissions for sale Post by: DavidsDad on April 13, 2005, 07:19:24 pm Thanks for the condolences, of course David (being 11) appears to have got over the huge initial disappointment, it's me that wants to cry now!!!!
:'( :'( :'( :'( Many thanks also to Steve Brown for agreeing to take the General Admission tickets from me, (that's a relief). Does anyone want the Parking Rouge Ticket? Call it a tenner? :-\ Cinderella will have to wait until next year's ball then, it seems. Meanwhile I can read what a fantastic time everyone has in June. Boo-Hoo.

Sorry to hear about your disappointment. If the parking ticket is still going I'll take that off your hands. Thanks Title: Re:1Parking Rouge+2 General Admissions for sale Post by: DavidsDad on April 14, 2005, 06:29:10 pm Yes HealeyHundred, it's yours, so all three tickets gone. :)
I'm obviously happy to have sold them all, and so quickly too, but more so that it was to CAers, and I didn't have to resort to using that auction website. Many thanks again to Steve Brown, (what's your brokerage fee?). I certainly owe you a beer Steve, but it'll have to be 2006, I'm afraid! Title: Re:1Parking Rouge+2 General Admissions for sale Post by: SpriteII on April 14, 2005, 09:51:19 pm Bad luck for not being able to go but hopefully next year.
If it's any consolation Dad and I first went in '86 when I was just 19. It was such a big adventure then and we we went about five or six years on the trot and I have really fantastic memories of those times that will last me forever. I sure once you do get there David will have the time of his life. Dad and I still make the trip together though these days not every year and in separate cars. Title: Re:1Parking Rouge+2 General Admissions for sale Post by: tomski1 on April 22, 2005, 08:29:29 pm Hi David's dad, sorry to hear that you can't go to 24 Hours, have you sold your tickets yet, if not let me know, I may well be interested.
