After deciding to give 2014 a miss, 2015 is a must.

I will be there with my crew as usual.

Due to the uncertainty over the MB campsite we are going to try Houx in 2015 so any tips are welcome as I have not been there since 1983 when it was a very different place

This could be the only Le Mans I ever miss out of choice

I would be gutted to miss out, but next year it will probably fall just after I finish my finals. I'm not sure I want to miss out on any of my final few weeks with my housemates and Uni friends. It only happens to you once.

Think it will be difficult seeing you all get excited in 11 months time, but I would probably regret missing those final few weeks without any work to do with no care in the world before going into the grown-ups' world for the rest of my life.

If I do go, it will be a Eurostar or plane job, and just for the race itself.

Getting married three weeks beforehand, so I kind of promised myself I wouldn't go in 2015, so as to pave the way for annual visits for the rest of my life from 2016.

Not really a question of permission or whether my fiancee would be mad, more a financial thing. Can't really justify spending €500 on LM24 when there's a hell of a lot more stuff to pay for.

Next year will be my annus sacrificilus, if you will, and it will kill me!

Well Sam we will be there and i suspect if you do make it to the meet your appearance on RLM might be effected by some of the cheese/drink that is now a tradition of meeting a few sips of the rocket fuel could either loosen your vocal cords or cause a background of snoring in the RLM studio. Either way it will be good to see you there again

Oh yeah, I'll be trying to bring some of the rocket fuel again next year, since people seemed to enjoy it. In a masochistic sort of way.

i was about to say "it tasted like a hangover" but then remembered.... there was no hangover. is the rocket fuel the holy grail??

unless it's still lurking waiting to pounce. or the past 10 days of disrupted, yet comatose sleep have actually *been* the hangover...

To be fair a lot of hotels won't have opened their booking for that far in advance yet. Obviously that's not to say that booking a hotel around those dates will be a piece of cake, but I wouldn't spread doom and gloom quite yet, and, as Victor says, campsites exist for a reason.

Twas me - I alway pop along to the parade. Got a bit bored this year and went for dinner instead. But the angle suggests that you may have been dressed as a ww2 fighter pilot??
