I agree with that Paul. My son is almost 22 and has just about returned from the dark side, he even managed to buy me a pint without being prompted a couple of weeks ago. He is coming to Le Mans with us next year (last time was when he was 13) I am really looking forward to that. I know that you are probably all thinking, "Bob doesnt look old enough to have a 22 year old son" but, yes I have  Perfect candidate for a HA camper has he had his arson training from the master yet, Bob |

No need Peter, he has been at Uni for the last 3 years. He most likely knows more about drunken debauchery and living in squalor than I ever will.

Blarry'ell! You lot're all making me feel truly ancient. Only 22 Bob? Coo... My son is 40 next year, but he is my best mate though (after Garyfrogeye that is!) Half a chance I might get him to LM one year but I'm not sure he'd want to do all that drunken debauchery though! (No not Gary!...)  |

"Young Brad" is 25 in 10 days, Bloody hell, where did the time go, I'm only 21 in my mind, still we have had some great times and are good mates (now were through the kevin stage that lasts about 5 years). Nobby, spent a few nights sleeping on Hospital pull out beds with my daughter and asthma, all fine now thankfully, all the best. |

I took my Dad to LM this year, but he was quite well behaved. Neither of us had been before, and we will be going again.
He's 61, and more of a hooligan than I could ever wish to be.
My daughter's just turned 2 and always asks to 'watch racing cars with Daddy' - Channel 4 usually have something on when she wakes up on Saturday so we watch it together.
The other week she threw a massive strop, and only behaved when I did what she wanted;- got the scalextric out of the cupboard.
I know there will be many more massive strops to come. I'll keep the scalextric handy just in case

Still, it has its compensations, I got back from Canada to find the no 58 Green Lola T70 Mk 3B, signed by David Piper himself waiting for me. |
