I think we will need more fresh water and fruits at the meeting this year. And this is a very good sign.

Back for first time in years

Hi All

I don't suppose anyone remembers me, but I'm back at Le Mans for the first time in many years. And I've got THREE newbies with me.

I'll do my best to come to the meeting and drag them along.

FG

Correct. Francis Griffin.

In those days I was a good friend of Fab, Fabrice Chaplin, who was a moderator here for a while. We are still in touch.

We have a maison secondaire not far (25mins) from the circuit.

Yes, I certainly remember you Francis - you ARE the person I was thinking of! Its a shame we don't see Fab her - or indeed at Le Mans - any more, although he and I exchange messages from time to time on FB. Good to hear you're making a 'comeback'!

I think you once gave me a hard time for opening a bottle of sparkling wine like a brute. Does that sound right? It was one of the very first meetings.

Goodness! That is me, Mrs FG1, and child 3 and 4 to the right. Fab on the left.

Child 3's fiance is one of the newbies I'm bringing!

Children were ankle-biters then.
That's my bum sticking out of the boot of my Alfa in the photo.
Very much looking forward to seeing you at the meeting, Francis!

Sorry, didn't recognise that! Though I was wondering about the Alfa.

The kids are no longer ankle biters, more's the pity!

Doh, I can't make the race now.. We've had a minor family emergency with my father (non-critical but hospital) so I'll have to pass on this one I'm afraid. I'm sure Truckosaurus will drink my share of any spare Dutch rocket fuel available!!

I'd even 'made' some Chilli and Lime Gin! I might just have to sup it all myself.

Have a good race.

We all know that this kind of event can happen to each of us at any time and particularly during the LM week.
Best recovery to your Dad.
