Never argue with an idiot, they'll only drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

A couple of years ago I was woken from my slumber in Karting Nord on Sunday morning by the noise from a TV in the tent behind us. They had hooked up to a satellite dish. They were watching ......... Le Mans 24 hours on Eurosport  I mean ... the race was going on just over THERE .... |

True, but the whole England v France patriotism thing will be hard to avoid. Remember England v Denmark in 2002 ? |

In 2000 , we all went to watch the footy in Tetre Rouge, which had a great atmosphere , but warm beer.
2002 was in the little pub just opposite the EXPO camp entrance and it was so full , you had to pass each others drinks on from the car. Great result though. Denmark lost.

Although I can't handle much football myself, Doctor, Buzz and Sticky are footie nutters, so we are bound to be showing this one from our motorhome feed. Our TV in the lounge is only c 20" though (even smaller in the main bedroom), so I might need to think about a projector or something so we can beam it outside.
Spookily at Le Mans during the last World Cup, England scored without fail everytime I opened abottle of champagne - I better put a case to one side for this game!

Given that my travelling compaion Mark is a big footy fan, you might be pleasantly surprised with some company on Sunday night Mr Toad...
We're normally travelling home by then, but I suspect 2004 will be different. You're on MB aren't you?

And a very large white sheet as a screen. Have to make sure that it's champagne cork proof though Toad. Can't do with any holes in it!!  |

I think this also clashes with the Canadian GP (subject to Tabacco sponsorship agreement) Footy kicks off at 19.45 (French time?) and the GP usually starts at 19.00 French time. We've often watched the GP in a bar in Le Mans - next year - dilemma. (Two satellite dishes?)
