[ibbylemans]

Hi, can anyone give me some advice please on hotels and transport to/from circuit? Thanks, ibby.

Hotels I know nothing about, only a remark posted here somewhere that a few hours after the change of dates was announced, all rooms were taken already!
So best of luck with that.

Transport on the other hand I know something about: the tramway is excellent!

Take the tram to Antares and get off at Antares or the stop just before that.

Tip: when going back into town go to Antares where the trams start as they are often full by the time they get to the 2nd stop (guetteloup)

The best hotels are called campsites - not 5 star but there are bars is every room and racing cars in the garden; no-ensuite facilities though and the roof leaks if it rains

Plus the added advantage of some campsites is that during saturday night if you wake up with a full bladder you can have a P while watching the cars go round.
Oh yes the gentle sound of rain falling on the tent roof usually helps me sleep as well

Simon, when we have a dry race next year (which we of course do, right Ayse?) just call, and i'll help make the rain effect! (which will prevent that i get my chair stolen again, when at Tetre Rouge )

Something stolen in TR campsite? not heard of any things being stolen for years, mostly due to the age of campers there, they are either asleep in their chairs or to drunk to move far. Seriously the campsite is usually totally safe, we leave our camping area with all the chairs,tables cooking stuff and supples and have never lost anything in the past 15 years

Well, it wasn't at the campsite itself, but at the Toilets at the gate.
I was set up at Tetre Rouge (the corner, not camp) at around 3 in the night, when i needed to pee badly, so i went to the Toilet at the gate close to TR corner and camp. I placed my Chair at the outside as i went in, but when i came out, it was gone. I asked the security at the gate (very close to the toilet) if they had seen it, but didn't understand anything, not even when i played charades with them

Or if you're Simon - both!

know that is not fair, I spend a lot of time in the campsite walking around talking to people and accepting their hospitality I don't just sit there getting drunk I spread myself around the campsite with the same result
