Duly noted. I'll most likely be asking for more tips on what to do in the city apart from scrutineering until it's time to actually be there.

Discover the old city, very nice. If it is your first time visiting scruteneering, you won't have time for more. Lots of things to see and people to talk to arround scruteneering.

The old city is indeed very nice. Imagine away all traffic signs and cars, and it'll just look like the middle ages. Some good bars there as we'll.

I had a terrible nightmare last night. I dreamed it was Le Mans weekend and not only was I not there, I wasn't following the race at all because I just couldn't be bothered!
Very troubling.

Nothing has changed , Im still going and for the first time in years I got a clean , warm and dry room to myself . 5 minutes from Mulsanne Corner .

Oh man ..... haven't been there since 2010 ..... Im wetting myself already .

Im really looking forward to seeing a Ferrari 458 , never seen one . Yes Rich07 ..... Ive got the rotten veg ready .

The 2 new Porsches , Toyota , Oreca03 , Corvette .... after missing 3 years I have so much more to look forward too .

I remember the days when the first place you visited was the Autosport stand to get the final driver placings .

I used to ring up Daytona press room ..... posing as a journalist from a German racing weekly mag and they would fax me the hourly standings so I could find out what was going on ..... we didn't have internet or mobile phones then .

Ive been stood on by French police , had a manhole cover collapse on me and fell down the hole , didn't spill the beer ..... been chased by a large bull . Almost jumped into the biggest pool of Bullxxxx Ive ever seen , over 2 foot deep ..... been so far lost in the woods I couldn't even hear the 767B rotary anymore ..... almost broke my leg in the middle of a country lane ..... among other things I wont tell .

And I keep going back and looking forward to it , something wrong upstairs methinks ?

Something would be wrong upstairs if you didn't want to come back.

Even my mum is coming back for another visit after 11 years off...

Well, Broken or not, Le Mans does stuff to you, which you really can't put your words on - you just have to come back, again, and again and again.

Wow, sounds like I would get into a lot of trouble if I hung out with you! Knowing how I am when I drink too much, I'd do all of what you listed above but would be doing it naked!
