If you want company & want to wait a bit, I'm travelling on the 23:15 06/07/06 Pompey-Caen Ferry.

Thanks for the info and the offer Guys I may take up one of those options yet.

Part of the reason I was looking at going on the 08:45 to Caen was to meet up with some Spyder/Speedster replica owners coming down via Dover-Bolougne Fast Cat the same day Dover 10:40 - Boulogne 12:30.

Given the time to travel from Boulogne to Le Mans should be able to meet up enroute

Got my confirmation of camping booking this morning. It stated that the passes will be despatched 30 days prior. Anyone else get theres? I only faxed mine at the beginning of last week.

Phil, I gather the PCGB application forms will be in the next Porsche Post? IS this correct?

I have seen the French Porsche Club have already published their application forms

That's it - I've done it, as painful as it was.

I am now a member of the PCGB - unless they black ball me

Well done Thomas . . . you know it makes sense

.

I've also been told the forms will be in next months 'Porsche Post'. I'm currently trying to get agreement so that I can post it on the PCGB's forum and on here (for the eager beavers).

I'll bring the soap and my gimp suit to Volksworld.

Guys . . . you're not going to like this (well those who have joined PCGB), and I'm not 100% certain myself, but looking at the booking form on the French Club's site (as pointed out by James and linked below) . . . you can be a non-member, and still be get club tickets, it will just cost you an extra 20 euros.

Before I get hacked to death

. . . I have always been told, and honestly believed you needed to be a member . . . sorry

.

Bang goes my recruitment drive . . . although you've got to be in it to win it.

You mean I shelled out my hard earned for no reason - I'd better get a gold plated membership card or a Pringle jumper. I suppose I'll have 12 copies of PP to use as kindling.

Thomas . . . trust me when I say it was a coincidence . . . me learning this just after you re-joined.

Never know, it might have changed (a little) since the last time run.

So, for my benefit, we need to have:

1. Booked ferry / crossing
2. Booked camping
3. Filled in that form for admission

Then we're good to go???

Blimey - complicated innit!!??
