some of the drinks and food shared around on the campsite are very tasty but some are of a more aquired taste and some of the local liquiors are certain to help you sleep however when you wake up you often regret saying umm thats nice I will have another

hahaha, good luck to all who decide to take the leap! I never tried it when I was in the Netherlands. Mostly due to receiving the same type of comments as GTFour's
But I'm picky with food so you could always wash it down with beer!

You'd gladly gargle cat pee to get rid of the taste!

Some of my parents neighbours have dutch friends who brought a pack of the salty licorice round. Nasty stuff.

Try to label it as race fuel, maybe that will help.

Mmmmm, I have a real weakness for Pineau des Charentes, either as an aperitif or, better still, as an accompaniment to foie gras (served with toast and Sauternes gelee)........heaven!

To me, it's not very surprising. Question of security ; this historical tree had long and heavy branches. Or they need more place.
Let's choose the closer one, waiting for the new trees to grow...

Will a huge 10T placard be necessary this year ?

Why do they keep cutting down all the trees at le mans, do they have an oversupply of lumberjacks?

Still the last tree left in the picture looks similar so we will need to meet close by that i think
