I'll just give it a rest for now, I 've been on the phone for the last few weeks to 'renew' my tickets from june to september (long story from several tickets to only one) wich was not possible until today.
I do have to say, everyone I spoke to at ACO was helpfull and very kind.
So happy I can attend in september, fingers crossed.

Obviously many, especially those that drive into campsites, take it in. Indeed we’ve achieved it too, just bury it deeper in bag!

I know that the ACO tries hard to stop large quantities of booze being taken into the circuit for obviously but never experienced them stopping you taking it into the campsite, except when in glass bottles.
It was not that long ago when the spectator area's would be littered with the small glass beer beer bottles and by the sunday there would be cover the area in ffrontt of the fences. The ban was to be honest a good thing safety wise.

Well after say i had not had my card yet, this morning two letters from the ACO, both containing new card and two window stickers. Oh well Helen can have one for this year.
However noticed the card says member since 2011, pretty sure i have been a member longer than that but checked some old cards and they say the same.

Same here - two envelopes, two cards, still the same number and member since 1997 is correct !!

Plus ca change!

We've had our tunnel booked for months - just moved it from the original date and then still have our tickets..

At the moment we're going over on the Wednesday - so not too worried about things in terms of days and timing quite yet.

Bless you Simon, while you are all meeting, I guess in masks and at a safe distance from each other, I will be 500 km to the south, probably attending the local market. I'll try and find a cafe where I can raise a glass to you all
Hopefully the ACO will be streaming the race.

Was on my way to Bretagne via Rouen. Weather was indeed horrid on route, although it improved massively when I arrived.
Seeing Alencon and Le Mans on the signs while not heading in that direction was strange.
