Good trip to Le-Mans, enjoyed by all.Some fantastic roads to drive on & the track laps around Le-Mans were fun, if a touch slow.Drank too much & slept too little. Despite reservations of other forum members, my car ran all weekend without breaking down, & I nearly washed it! I'm sure that Tony will upload photos soon.

Total lies, you've just used photo shop to doctor some old ones. But my one of Tony & the waitress is genuine!

Sorry Bob, we do now have the evidence courtesy of Mr G Jackson;

And it was case of: "Bugger it, I've broken it again!! Well it was working before, not sure what it good be as I've left the factory workshop manual at home now. Need to take it to a specialist, perhaps if I unbolted the supercharger it will go, or I tell you what it could be the kink in the fuel pipe caused by the boot floor jamming against the body"

It must be true. Dave, nee Roz, said that it was a pleasure sharing a bed with you. But why did he insist on moving rooms so fast?
