The road to Le Mans 2018

After the email I came into this morning I seriously wish I was with the guys having a **** bacon sarnie instead of being here. Enjoy.
 
Wishing you Boys a Great Trip from New Zealand.
Glad I got to make one with you before I left the UK.
 
Due to circumstances beyond my control I won't be going in my Maser either. I too am extremely upset at this turn of events but I won't go into them on here.
 
Gutted for both of you if you planned on taking your cars and now can’t.... seems like really bad luck..
 
Day 1:

An early but spirited meet up on top of the hill overlooking Portsmouth then a cruise down to the Port for the 9am.

Thankfully all made it on to the ferry so I could relax a bit. 3 hrs later we arrived in a rather gloomy Cherbourg.

Headed off to Saint Mere Eglise for a quick drink and a bite to eat then off to Bernay for the night one hotel.

Athol managed to smash his windscreen for the second Le Mans running and AdamN nearly modified his Aston into the back of Stevo’s GT but thankfully we all arrived safely.

Dinner for 30 then off to one of our favourite bars for shall we say a couple :)

All going brilliantly and the weather has improved.

Right, off to breakfast. Laters.

Leaving MK at 5am tomorrow, so should be at the campsite by mid/late afternoon, in my mates diesel Passat. Suppose the upside of not being able to take the Mas, is that fuel will be cheaper, and we can get more wine in. Still would rather be taking the Mas....
 
Day 3, repatriated to bar number 2, bar one has run out of alcohol

All,

Hope you have a great weekend. I’m setting off @8am tomorrow morning and hopefully may bump (not literally) into some of you over the next few days...
