We rea a group of 38. We will provide your transport plus expenses and entry tickets. You will have a great weekend with us. We are Midlands-based and look fwd to meeting you asap.
Title: Re: Two Free Trips Post by: Robspot on May 03, 2006, 02:34:39 pm Thanks for the extremely exciting offer but I think I'll stick to having a great weekend with everyone else ::)
What is it with people who can't be arsed to take their own stuff down or set it up? You're not that guy from e*ay are you? Title: Re: Two Free Trips Post by: Bob U on May 03, 2006, 03:26:41 pm I do believe these guys offered the same deal last year. All they are looking for is a driver and a skivvey.
If you can't be bothered to set up your own gear f**k off and use MRI or better still go to Butlins Title: Re: Two Free Trips Post by: Robspot on May 03, 2006, 03:32:20 pm Sounds like another bunch of Le Mans-ites to me Bob ::)

Having your own Butler on Maison Blanche would be superb. I can hear it now "Would sir like another beer. Is this steak cremated enough? Shall I clean the pool now sir?"
Title: Re: Two Free Trips Post by: nickliv on May 03, 2006, 07:22:19 pm £1.30
That's bloody cheap for a transit, and loads of camping gear if you ask me. ;D Title: Re: Two Free Trips Post by: Robspot on May 03, 2006, 07:28:12 pm I've just read the first post again and not only can't they bothered to set their own camp up but they want you to go down on tuesday and basically save space for 38 people until friday :o
I can see that one going down a treat when the camp fills up on thursday afternoon. Title: Re: Two Free Trips Post by: wishy on May 03, 2006, 08:04:59 pm I have a feeling it could be JPC in disguise.....he fenced off half of MB last year for his crew.

Not only that, they want you to stay sober so that you can ferry them into town, Tosh pots. Title: Re: Two Free Trips Post by: MIKE C (Liverpool Boys) on May 03, 2006, 09:07:02 pm Are this lot taking the P--s, or What!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.
Title: Re: Two Free Trips Post by: Brian(Liverpool boys) on May 03, 2006, 09:14:04 pm Yep.

Nope, I do my own dirty work!! ;) Title: Re: Two Free Trips Post by: Chris24 on May 04, 2006, 03:15:04 am w**k*rs springs to mind !
Title: Re: Two Free Trips Post by: Robspot on May 04, 2006, 09:26:56 am Isn't it funny that there's a swear filter on twat but not on w**k*r ;D
Title: Re: Two Free Trips Post by: jpchenet on May 04, 2006, 09:49:40 am And on shits but not on bastards! ;D
Title: Re: Two Free Trips Post by: Paddy_NL on May 04, 2006, 10:09:28 am what about e*ay ;D
Title: Re: Two Free Trips Post by: Snoring Rhino on May 04, 2006, 09:35:52 pm Maybe they should be more open (if it is the same crew as e**y they seem to be playing their cards closer now) and offering some financial inducements for the services required well as a fully expensed trip or be fully integrated with their group as an equal to the rest. I think they thought it would be a good offer to somebody desperate - obviously misguided as to the ethos of LM.
Title: Re: Two Free Trips Post by: DelBoy on May 04, 2006, 10:23:00 pm ....if it is the same crew as e**y ....... Not sure it is the same group. These are Midlands based whereas the e**y ones were from Essex - unless they moved Essex a hundred miles or so. Same dodgy philosophy though - want a couple of skivvies for peanuts. How much for the ferry and entrance tickets split between 38 people?? Less than a fiver a head!! Think I'll start my own version: Two Free Tickets for two Nubile Wenches.....etc etc Del Title: Re: Two Free Trips Post by: Fran on May 04, 2006, 10:26:43 pm Two Free Tickets for two Nubile Wenches..... Sorry Del, I already have my tickets n ferry booked! :P Title: Re: Two Free Trips Post by: jpchenet on May 04, 2006, 11:22:57 pm A well connected and well informed CA member who shall remain nameless (until the poo bar at 21.00 on Saturday night in Le Mans) has informed me that the email address of the poster is registered to someone who is a European tour operator.
"http://espgo.com/staff.htm Tours Director, Phil Alcock, founding director of one of the UK's leading adventure tour operators, has over 20 years' professional experience of organising youth group vacations in Europe. Phil speaks Spanish, French and Italian fluently...and English. " Could it be that they are charging people for a managed/guided tour and all the while they are staffing it with "free" staff??? It's also strange how they haven't replied t any of the posts, and neither did the eBay posters repond to the thread on PistonHeads as they said they would!! Maybe they do have a conscience??? :-\ Title: Re: Two Free Trips Post by: smokie on May 07, 2006, 12:26:58 am You lot were discussing a word above which escaped the swear filter. It doesn't now! ;D ;D
Title: Re: Two Free Trips Post by: Brian(Liverpool boys) on May 07, 2006, 01:07:12 am Spoil sport, meet up soon for some low flyers.
Title: Re: Two Free Trips Post by: Robspot on May 08, 2006, 08:51:18 am You lot were discussing a word above which escaped the swear filter. It doesn't now! ;D ;D w**k*r!!! Title: Re: Two Free Trips Post by: TheForthRailBridge on May 10, 2006, 06:11:12 pm Well done to JPC! The penny drops at last.
Maybe it's due to the fact that they get free 'staff' that these tour operators are able to keep their prices so low. Title: Re: Two Free Trips Post by: Kpy on May 10, 2006, 06:25:20 pm Well done to JPC! The penny drops at last. Am I missing something? ???Maybe it's due to the fact that they get free 'staff' that these tour operators are able to keep their prices so low. Which tour operators with what low prices? ??? Title: Re: Two Free Trips Post by: BigH on May 10, 2006, 06:59:46 pm Bonjour Phileep!! Comment ca-va?!!
Je suis parlez Francais till le chiens returne avec leurs queues remuant, comme la porte de merdehouse. Anyway, I don't care what this lot say, I'm up for it. My friend and I can also be described as mature, admittedly in much the same way as a nice Camembert or Stilton can. As an added bonus we can supply specialist medical services as well, - my companion has lanced more piles than you've had hot dinners, I'd expect. He keeps some of them in his wallet to show the girls. Please let me have the SP, - I can't wait. (My colleague has started packing the Preperation H/Fiery Jack cocktail already.) Yours in ripe anticipation Elderly, mature, H Title: Re: Two Free Trips Post by: wishy on May 10, 2006, 08:57:08 pm H,
You do yourself down.I could have sworn you are much younger than me,or are your looks created by modern medical science? Wishy |
