Team JPC's advance party of 6 security officers will be on the Pompey-Caen overnighter on Sunday 12th, hopefully arriving at MB by about 9.30/10.00am Monday morning, to secure space and to start building the village.
As Abs has said, he and two others will be joining us on Wednesday morning, then 10 more on Thurdsday morning and 5 more on Friday morning, plus possibly a couple fo extras at some point.
All (apart from Abs group) leaving MB at lunchtime on Monday for the Caen-Pompey 17:00 boat.

This year will be our 2nd trip to Le Mans. We'll be leaving from Portsmouth to Caen on the Tuesday night ferry and then back on the Monday night Caen to Portsmouth crossing! Already thinking of what compilation CDs to put together and possible T-Shirt designs We'll be in our A4 Avant... Pretty easy to spot as we'll be a party of 5 girls!!! Looking forward to champagne and BBQ's at Maison Blanc

2 cars going this year to Karting Nord. Leaving on Shuttle at 01:58 (I know!) on Thurs & Rtn mid pm on Monday. Hoping to move our site from 2 yds from the toilets by the Kart Trak to the bank that runs along side the Kart Trak. That trak is going to look mighty tempting for our new petrol scooter!

The Brethren arrive at Techno or Karting ( if the French get there f**k*ng fingers out ) from wednesday lunchtime, journeying down from Calais and lunching at Neufchatel en Bray. Our group has gathered more strength this year and should hit 70 even though we have lost a few of our regulars ( till next year boys). T shirt sales will be strong and presence overwhelming. Theme this year will be a tribute to Ben's brother Matt ( Jarvo Red 2), Harrier and Red Arrow pilot who sadly lost his fight for life against cancer last week at the age of 30. Attending will be 18 motors varying from Morgans, Ferraris and Astons to the ridiculous ( Rex ?!), 8 plus bikes, 2 Winne's, White van support/friday transport vehicle and 1 professional chef, Leon the swearing Dutchman. Securing the real estate for this lot is going to be interesting to say the least, keeping it will be easy. Usual festivities in the Square on Friday with Simon and the Lambo boys, Arnage and back at base camp for the Brethren Soiree in the evening for some fine sounds ( provided courtesy of Fat Boy Fat), fireworks, dancing, falling over, 'Vagrant Elvis' and the infamous 'Chili Challenge', oh, and I'm sure Trayboy will be exposing himself at some point. All welcome. Saturday, brekkers Arnage, Champ bar at 12, and again in the evening. Oh yeah, watch some racing, helicopter rides and the Funfair (hooray). Sunday pm off to jolly old Rouen for a few pints off Guinness in O'Kallaghans (see you there Nobby) and some fine scoff. Return via the tunnel after a visit to the war graves and some seafood in Le Touquet. See you all there chaps. Rusty

Ferry crossing on the Tuesday from Portsmouth should be a laugh then! We're all looking forward to cracking open a bottle of champagne when we get to Maison Blanche on Wednesday mid-morn... I'm trying not to think about the hangovers guess the only way is to carry on straight through and worry about feeling bad on the Monday!!!
