An impromptu trip to Lemans for the weekend

Exhausted is the word.  Here are the figures

11am Friday - leave home Shrewsbury , Shropshire. 11am following Monday - arrive work - tired, 72 hours later, 1230 miles, 24 hours driving, average speed 50 mph, average fuel cumsumpion 25 mpg. 9 hours sleep

A great time had by all 11 of us. My son Tom's first visit to Le Mans. Now he wants to go back. 400 fantastic cars from the 1920's up to the 1970's. Great racing for 24 hours. Wonderful atmosphere, great company, and great food.

Thanks to Andy Mitchell for making sure we all turned up. Roll on the next one.

Also thanks to Andy for teaching us the correct use for french bread !!
