Houx Camping Map
Discussion
I am fully expecting to be empty handed but I am not coming back! . Stopping off in France for a week then race.
I have heard that Houx is open for test but we have to be offsite by 9am on Monday! Yes 9am. I am guessing that they are marking the pitches up after test and wasting time re-numbering it differently from last year. I am on Non Numbered and have 4 tickets that we want together, from memory there are not many of these grouped together.
I will refer to the 2013 map and see if I can make any similarities.

Good luck. We always pay the premium for numbered pitches, because it reduces the stress and lets us have a leisurely dawdle down.I have heard that Houx is open for test but we have to be offsite by 9am on Monday!

Haha! Can't believe my 2015 partial map is still the best online.
There you go lads. Photographic evidence of "scavenged from a bin" for the greater good of the collective.
Of course in hindsight we should have lifted it and scanned when home, but lets be honest: Who is thinking straight at 8 AM the Monday after the race?

Thx! Downloaded, and maybe when I have nothing to do in the dark and cold months, I'll make an effort and turn it in a map in readable scale. But for the moment, this is indeed the best there is.There you go lads. Photographic evidence of "scavenged from a bin" for the greater good of the collective.

Just for Ollie.
Thing I can't work out - the pics I have and the pics you lot can click on are the same thing. I know the numbers are a bit blurry, but surely with a little bit of effort you can read 4-5 of the pitch numbers and work out what is going on? They are in order after all!
Thank you anyway like I said very much appreciated

Top man, I appreciate that, I had worked out where 34 was I couldn’t tell where 14 was in range 34, it looks like it’s up against the fence on the roadside.
Thank you anyway like I said very much appreciated
no worries!Thank you anyway like I said very much appreciated
just done the other map, looks like it shows much better on my kindle than on the PC. strange!
Anyways, the general gist of the numbering is it goes in a u shape:
1 20
2 19
3 18
4 17
5 16
6 15
7 14
8 13
9 12
10 11
Where it falls down is when theres an X'd pitch for a tree or uneven ground. I _think_ the numbers stay the same but the ticket isn't sold, but that's more memory of the old map than the semi unreadable map I photographed!

Got most of that but looking at the scan it seems they often miss numbers for whatever reason.
I,'m going with "because they're French"!It',s a bit like the alcohol rule being different every hour of the day. If they start doling out consistency, people will expect it left right and centre. Will there be big roll? Hot water? aftermath from the next batch of merguez? It's better for all involved for them to keep us on our toes
