Still keep looking in every few days but not much happening in the world of sportscar racing, however in just over 1 month i hope to be in spa watching the six hour classic race, hoping to find a cheap hotel close by but happy to camp if it means we can spend the evenings drinking in the racing hotel bar

But I'm looking forward to Spa too!, It's going to be good with some Sportscar Racing again. |

I suspect we will be par taking of cheese and wine, and perhaps meeting a few forum members aswell

Like everyone else I've been struck by how quiet everything's been.
Huge gap in the WEC schedule, with everything remaining being a flyaway, relative demise of the ALMS, and a distinct lack of any real news or proper grounds for speculation means there's not a huge amount to be said. Hoping things pick up in the autumn, in the meantime, we're plotting a Christmas trip down the Loire valley, so pondering whether it's worth trying to see the track with some snow involved. |

Cheers for the add on facebook, CTD! Your snaps are excellent.
Le Mans was nearly two months ago, or a sixth of a year. So we're 1/6th of the way to the next Le Mans. |

yes things have indeed been quiet recently, although Helen was very pleased to get several happy birthday messages from tenthers on her facebook page.
Indeed now only just over 10 months to go until the first of my two trips to la sarthe in 2014 |

Had to go to Finland to partake in a bit of rally watching in the absence of any sportscars.
Looking forward to the racing kicking back off again but just as frustrating is the drying up of information regarding 2014. I think we will see a lot of late deals this year with all the uncertainty and USCR questions. |

Well as i have sampled only a very small selection of the thousands of different cheeses available it is only those that I have tried that i can comment on, but currently my favourite is Lincolnshire poacher, a very hard english cheese which reminds me of the cheddars we had as a boy, very dry and nutty, only seen it in waitrose and due to price usually only buy it when it is approaching it's sell by date and reduced to an affordable level.
favourite french cheese is vignotte and rather liked the belgium cheese(stilton like) from the meet |

Tough crowd you lot.
I'm not even 100% sure that's the first time I've used that "joke" in this thread. Brie always has had a habit of repeating on me. |

I was working in a deli once, when a Greek girl came in and said "do you have any Feta cheese?"
I replied, "well I'm quite in to gimp masks and ladies feet"... |

Okay, I think we've exhausted all the cheese-related puns. I camembert it any longer.

Where there's a will, there's a whey.
Or so I've heard. |
