OK, we were camped next to this lot and I can confirm that the mess was nothing short of a disgrace.  Forget any excuse re Pikeys and such they spent their time sitting amongst utter filth.  This was not a case of leaving behind crap they actually spent their time living with it during the stay.  The only reason it wasn't more apparant was that our gazebo covered the mess.

I want to make it clear that our group were not responsible for the mess left by this group who were middle aged, wealthy individuals and not young ruffians.

We were the group with a Quattro banner and Canal banner.

They were a disgrace, their is no excuse for the mess they sat amongst and ultimately left behind.

They didnt think the police would be intersted (too busy fund raising from motorist) but promised to mace him before letting him go (Do I believe that???).

............indeed...seems like the only criminals in Le Mans at this time of year are British motorists!!

Oh dear, I think I may have caused a bit of a mess.  I had a lot of lettuce left over from the doner kebabs and there was all the boxes that the fish and battered sausages were in.

Maybe I should have swept it into a better heap.  I'm sure the locals will sort it out though  Undecided

Hi Felix, somehow our paths never crossed, was looking forward to some proper British cooking, but never mind.  Might have caught a glimpse of your rig going through Argentan on Monday morning while with the SPS patrol were returning to barracks, was that you Cool

Some thiefing bastards dragged a bag out of the side of my mates tent during the night on Friday night, went through it and nicked his mobile phone and then dropped the clothes by his tent.

My dirty clothes littering the entrance to my tent probably put them off doing the same to my clothes bag ! Grin

Also heard a group in the ACO building reporting that they had grandstand seats stolen from their tent the same evening.

Have you got that right? I thought they were expected to leave the seats in the stands, not take them back to their tent. Perhaps it was the ACO that reclaimed them.

The bins in Expo were emptied several times a day including in the middle of the night.  Was rather a surprise at 5am Thursday when the dustcart woke me up!

I'd like to thank Houx and Houx Annexe for the Fireworks displays, you get an excellent view from Chapelle [it's only advantage] and I also got round the roundabout on Friday evening without getting soaked or crashed into this year.

However I did cringe at what sounded like a nasty crash on Sunday evening form the Houx area.

Whilst reviewing the evidence and having met the people we maybe refering to.....


Have we got our wires crossed ??

Bill and Co are not slobs, are respectable people with years of experience at LM ??

Judges rules suggest Darren maybe talking about differnet groups to that of Disgusted with Houx.


Either that or there will be a great bun fight on HA next year. Friday night, 2000hrs.......

Wind up in my humble estimation.



Oh, and the aid of Admin tools.  Grin


Chill people!!  Cool Cool Cool


After we failed to take down our partially filled pool on Monday despite lots of warning from the nice Johnnies from Control and the four goons in the car, they kindly emptied it for us while we were out shopping on Tuesday. Next year I'm hoping they'll erect my tent...
