I received the same pack as Brendan - which is the Paddock Pass? - does the card double for both entrance and paddock?

Cheers,

I got mine (in the nick of time before we left for France) but only have the top and bottom items, is the middle ticket a grandstand ticket?

I presume the credit card is general entry and paddock pass? All it says on the back is "Plein Tarif 56€"

I notice that various clothing items that are prohibited, what are we supposed to wear a shirt and tie?!!!!

Cheers, and sorry for the novice questions, but I've also bought tickets for two friends and am a bit nervous that we'll get there and find we don't have what we should...

As James said, short sleeve shirt and shorts is OK.

I spoke to Brian the other day and he confirmed the credit card with €56 is both entry and paddock.

I don't normally do the weather forecast before going because it will be what it is and you can't change it. In a moment of boredom last night I had a look and thought, OH nooooo, rain and more bloody rain.

Let's hope the French get there weather forecast as wrong as we do.

I did the same this morning and had a look and yes, looks like we are in for some rain - pack accordingly!

Well the good news is my car is all back together and running like a dream (I like to cut things fine before going away in it :lol: )

The bad news is the cock up with Sladey's ferry booking has also cocked up our booking too!!! :evil: It looks like the 3 of us (father in law, brother in law & ones self) were sharing a cabin with Mark. Since Marks booking was cancelled so was the cabin that we were all sharing!!! So I'm on the scrounge if there are any spare bunks going on the Wednesday night crossing, please let me know???

I've got a cabin. So far Sladey (and possibly Ian?) are in it - they'll be room for another at a push.

We are well on our way to Le Mans now. Left Stockholm yesterday (5 days travel time. Pretty good room for errors :roll: ) and are now staying the night in Hamburg. Plan is to go to Brugge tomorrow, then Normandie, and then a short stint on Thursday to Le Mans. Fingers crossed we'll see you all on Thursday!
