I fellas account of his trip to LM '06

I particularly like this phrase:-

Eventually, we find our way into Houx Annexe, the ‘Dorchester of Le-mans’.

Having never stayed at the Dorchester I can only surmise that I wouldn’t want to. Houx Annexe is like a de-militarised zone, and not too many degrees removed from every part-feral gypsy encampment you’ve ever seen on Look-East (or your regional equivalent), depicting the occupants burning things with a view to showing why they ought to be allowed to stay there. The only thing that appears to differ here is that A) we’ve actually paid for the privilege and B) some of the cars aren’t on fire. Yet.


Find the article on Piston Heads.

You're either at Le Mans, or waiting for Le Mans!

Bob, at first I thought, it was a spoof from you! then, after reading further saw the other fine recommendations from the pistonhead camper and just knew it couldn't possibly be you!!

What a fine chap, Werner has already grabbed it for next years guide. Wink

With the possibility that HA will be turning to some extent into a football stadium car park in the not too distant future I am entirely in favour of letting some idiots bad-mouth the place.

All the more space for the discerning few!
