Le Bounty for the Classic

[Dieter7S4]

Who else is staying here? Had a great time at the race last year, looking forward to seeing all the old machinery and some more civilised socialising!!!

Not to mention the BBQ's and the excellent atmosphere at the site

Group of 5 Caterhams and a 1972 Lotus 7S4

Lowdrag - If you are around, a beer at la Boule D'or? We arrive Wed afternoon.

Steve,

Good one! I was trying for most of the day to see how I could get Tuesday on there!!! Don't forget the Wheatsheaf Tuesday evening, the Cajun Chicken is outstanding :-o

1 Caterham
1 Elise
1 Bike engined thingy
1 BL Princess ( yes, really!)

[Dieter7S4]

Blimey! A Princess! My dad had one of those back in the 70's, look forward to seeing that.

Dazzled where abouts in Hants are you? You are more than welcome to meet us Tuesday evening (8th) for a pie and a pint at the Wheatsheaf in Shedfield before we get our ferry

[Bobo W]

It would be interesting to see what the Wheatsheaf is like but as an alternative for anyone travelling from Portsmouth I can heartily recommend The Ship on Hayling Island which apart from the great views does excellent food.

[Dazzled]

Hi Dieter -
Thanks for the invite ( I'm near BW ) but i'll see you for a drink over the other side that way you can admire our Princess. It was sourced from e Bay and is a beaut - leatherette interior and right on trend white paintwork.
My dad had one too when they were new so i just hope i was paying attention to the mechanic when he regularly came round to fix it as i think we're going to be busy.

[Dieter7S4]

Dazzled - no worries, look forward to seeing the old girl at the Bounty!

Steve and myself look forward to meeting all you guys coming to Bounty for the classic, new and old. Those that came last year will notice the changes as in the new log cabin housing the showers and washbasins with constant hot water and the new log cabin housing the toilets both open 24 hours, oh and also our new managers Paul & Babs.

Since the 24 hour race we have already received 40 bookings for next years 24 hour race and none of these have been to Bounty before. So if you wish to come next year please reserve your space ASAP. To keep Bounty with its relaxed atmosphere we are limiting the number to a max of 150.
For those’s who have limited space in a vehicle we are offering tent hire. These range from 1 berth (actually they a 2 berth tent) with a with blow up mattress to large family type tents with full blow up beds.

Hi John, you better keep spaces available for the Breakfast Orange & Gravillon Club (BOG Club) at next years LeMans 24 Hour.

We will be alternating between the Classic and the main 24 Hour race from this point forward... probably.

And as the original Camping Le Bounty team we do expect our prime spot by the bar to be maintained for us!

See you in a few days
