It has buggered our veiwing spot for mad Friday but on the positive side it will stop the pikies just climbing over the fence and being free to wander also stopping the quick dash in and out with are gear.

I propose we form an escape committee and plan to dig a tunnel - just imagine all CA MB campers dropping earth out their trouser legs in front of the grandstand - the added benefit of course would be a raised bank for viewing purposes...

Blimey Robbo, that looks a bit like overkill, who are they expecting to try and gate crash, The Light Brigade?
I'm now more than a little concerned about the increase in size of the Maison Blanche camp site, and worried that there will be no corresponding increase in the facilities, particularly in the 'bottom end' infrastructure.
A couple of years ago, after an eye-watering 30 minute straining session in one of the squatters, exacerbated by the increasing queue length, five of my haemorrhoids exploded. And I tell you most sincerely, you don't walk away from that too easily. In fact I didn't really walk easily for about three weeks.
No, I don't want to go through that again...

H you have my sympathy. Some time ago I wrote to the ACO to complain about the facilities in the toilet area. I was decrying not the fact that there weren't enough or that they were dirty. It was more that the ACO had not been humane enough to install leather straining straps or foot-shaped heaving blocks on the back of the door. Result: A ruptured anal fissure and Nurembergs like a vine of cherry tomatoes.
They did not have the courtesy to reply.

A second storey would be interesting, and maybe some piped music. All I wanted was a gimp mask and some Mississippi Geetar music. This Gospel Music will save me, I'm sure of that. Mary-Lou!!H |

The heady aroma of revolution is hot in the air, along with the other heady smells and whiffy hotspots associated with MB. Are we going to take this lying down? I say no brothers!
No, what we need is a sit-in protest. We can climb on the roof of the Abloutions Block, hurl roof slates at the Shitehouse Family and wave a big banner saying "WE ARE NOT ANIMALS". Obviously we'll demand negotiations directly with the President of the ACO. M Cossin will eventually accede to our demands for pink two ply and a free copy of the Daily Mirror and we'll all emerge as heros of the revolution.

Sorry but it's not the same president anymore. The new one is Jean Claude Plassard and he's a former chief executive of Carrefour group, but it won't mean taht he'll provide eevrything unfortunately  !!! |

Now that really is a shi**y thing to do to someone. Still rekon it's worth the risk. |

I've seen a couple of 'portalets' go over and it's a fairly gruesome spectacle, particularly if they land on the door, rendering immediate escape difficult and squidgy.
I'm surprised by talk of 'straining sessions', teeth-marks in the woodwork and associated paraphenalia to assist with the evacuation process.
My experience at Le Mans is usually contrary to all this huffing and puffing. Best described as leisurely cable-laying, when my constitution is sound (look after your Guinness and it looks after you) - and a night-time Shuttle launch, when the imbibement has loosened me up somewhat, the 'no pain, no strain, just sit (squat) there and drain' philosophy is the one to which I subscribe.
I'll leave it to Fax to tell the tale of the assault with fire-hose that he endured in the Houx bogs in 2000 - and Ricardo to describe how he retrieved his readers, having dropped them down the hell-hole, while 'sorting himself out'.
The very, very worst crappers are the ones behind the tribunes. The horrors of those places are indescribable - oh God and baby Jesus, it makes me shudder to contemplate.........
