On The Blag...

Team

The New Year is pushing on and now into February

Skip has just called me to put a Blag area on the site, listing what is required for this years campsite

I will be updating the list over the weekend, if there is something you can source, let the team know and I will mark it down for you

Before the Southampton Branch rants on, all you have to do it get to Houx as we know multi tasking can be difficult and you don't have room in the Cob boot for a kitchen sink!!!

Anyway, your help will be appreciated and make your experience one to remember!!!!

Cheers Julian

Le Mans 2008 confirmation

Ladles and Germs,

Nice to hear from the Riht Honourable Member for Southampton and the Members of Weymouth Branch from the Alps, one hopes they are not letting the side down and never get to bed before 04.00hrs am.
Polishing up on French language I hope.
I trust all is well over there and look forward to more entries on the Blog complete with indiscreet photos of indescretions and minor law breaking.

Le Mans 2008 ticket allocation for the Bracknell and Northampton Branches have been confirmed we have camping tickets for The Houx Annexe plus the ususal General Entrance and ACO stand tickets.
Many thanks to the ladies of the ACO and the efforts of the Right Honourable Member for Weymouths in keeping them sweet and pliable throughout the last year, keep it up Skip.

Jeffers is on the case for the Le Mans Classic Hotel requirement.

Best Regards to all, stay safe Skiing chaps and chappettes.

JUST TRYING TO HELP......

Anybody found a lapstrop and Nikon D300 avec all the bells and whisltes!

Hi Guys and Gals,

JC just popped into my office and gave me the bad news, his lappy and camera plus lenses were stolen from his car last night.
A tad under £5,000 worth of white and black goods.
So..........
Understandably, JC aint in the mood for the calendars right now, he lost all his templates, but the piccies are backed up, but he has lost a bit of motivation.
I reckon JC will do em when he has the lappy back and can sort out his motivation etc, etc.

Bad luck hey chaps and chappettes.

Regards to all.

Mark.
