a lady at le mans

[le girl]

hello all, i am new here and new at le mans so please be gentle :o

Now not wishing to come across all girly but but I have been wondering now for a while how on earth do I keep up with what is happening during the race for the whole 24 hours, or as long as i can keep up for anyway.

and a good excuse not to wash for a week.

Do boys need an excuse?

No seriously though, are there big screens around the circuit or boards telling you who is where at the main viewing places or is it really just guess work.

And yes i shall be drinking etc as well, its just i do want to know what is happening as well.

Thanks chris, i have heard about radio LM and have a radio, both in the car and a small one to carry with me. Also turbo4, could you dig out this other thread for me, text thing sounds excellent, not wanting to sound all female but texting i can handle, sounds a great idea, HA HA.

Also what shoes should i take?

Take shoes that you don't care about - and that will protect you from all the broken glass...

HA HA i will take a pair of last years heels then. They should keep be away from any broken glass as they are a good height and being sooo last year i will not care if i scuff them as i stumble out of teh champagne bar.

We are going on thursday, jolly early on Seafrance, would be good to meet up with some other lmers, we shall be the 2 girls in the black elise s2 with many bags on the boot rack.

but a bit harder to meet freindly PHLM'ers at the ferry port and then again all the way down.

A convoy is always nice, but then i do not think i will be going down with anyone with a V dub rep car and a liking of cheap sarcasm at a ladies expense.

[le girl]

cheap shots are not my thing. If i'm going down with anyone, it has to be of a certain class.

And a viper striped plumbers van just isn't it. It would be hell to get a bag to match.

and take a bog roll, im a bloke though so make do with leaves.

LOL thanks fo rall advice, many replies is great.

To recap, old shoes, plenty of booze, race texts to fone, radio for radio lm, get stripes on the elise and avoid a red and white estate. Have i missed anything?

Pampers wet wipes

is that in case up-the-dubs turns up?

[le girl]

hey there dubs, as with you i was not wishing to cause offence, i was just joshing with you as i found your humour (and car) rather cute and thought you were up for it.
I am not posh, having a nice car is just a pleasure i can afford myself. The rest of the people I know who are driving down are in a striped up '80's merc, all £50 of it, we too stripe anything for LM. I would be more than happy to meet for you to show me the real you, we are also at Beausejour campsite, you can help me pick my shoes for the day.
