Wer're popping into the circuit this Thursday cause according to this years program Aston Martin Racing are there (have also confirmed with a call to the circuit today). Might be worth a peek!

Only one minor mishap in our group:
TVR S2 - Knocked the middle section of the exhaust out of the front box getting on the ferry at Pompey. Speedy at Le Harve knocked it back in place, although we did have a Ferris Bueller moment when the mechanic shot off round the block to drive it into the other entrance.
made sure we asked for Deck 3 on the way back.

My own view is that we shot ourselves in the foot last year by putting in one huge order - and that is absolutely no reflection on Termie's efforts.
I have a suspicion that had our orders gone in, at the same time, as individual orders, then at least some might have been allocated MB. As it was, the ACO tried to keep us all together (apart from Piglet!!), but dumped us on BN.
I'll be at PQ as well, so I'll bung my order in then.

I put in an individual request for 2xMB by fax just after your group lot was submitted. We were also bumped to BN (which we accepted). I reckon its just random darts as to who gets what. |

Yep, great result. 20 years since the last win at Twickenham. I think England contributed by losing their way a bit in the second half, but take nothing away from the Welsh boys. This, speaking as an Englishman living in Wales and just coming home from the pub, having watched it with them. There's always a great atmosphere in the pubs here when the rugby is on and no animosity, unlike the game with the round ball.....
In fact, didn't Wales beet England in 1999 at Twicker's! I'll check up. Wales have beaten England in London, in the last 20 years, but while they were playing home games at Wembley, due to Twickenham being rebuilt. Er, might have been the Millenium stadium being built, can't remember, but definatley played at Wembley, watched the match in Courcheval, slightly over-refreshed. t'was indeed a Wales home game at Wembley. I know cause I was there! Scott Quinnell at 8 peels of the back of a Wales line out in the England 22, drops into the 10 slot, sucks in the England defence, pops to Scott Gibs on the burst from 12 who proceeds to sidestep 2 (if not more) of the oppo, raises a hand to the crowd before finishing the move with a flourishing dive. Jenkins slots the conversion. Wales victorious. I got the call for a ticket for that match the night before. Cost me a dinning room table and chairs to keep the wife sweet. Happy Days. Oh, did I mention 2005, sat behind the posts in the north stand watching Gav kick for glory. We guided that one in with Hymns and Arias. |

Got our allocation this morning. We weren't in Termie's bunch but also asked for MB (didn't specify a zone) and got bumped to BN. I'm just trying to think how I can spend the 60 euros I saved.
I assume faxing back the payment details is OK, as this is the first year we've gone through the ACO

Faxed my order on the 6th June, surely that wasn't too late.  Who knows....there seems to be no rhyme or reason to the allocations this year. What did you ask for? Just 2 camping passes for MB. Hopefully that small enough to slip through the net, but I suspect we'll get bumped to somewhere like BSJ or BN |

Starting to get worried now. Just had the following response from the ACO when I emailed to see if there was any news on my order: "We will record your order in the coming days. You will receive your letter of reservation at the latest within 2 weeks." Faxed my order on the 6th June, surely that wasn't too late. |
