One of our group can't make it so i have a spare ticket. This will be for one car and two passengers. Included is:-
-Ferry crossing Thurs 15th June from Dover 10.30am IIRC returning 6pm from Calais on Sun 19th June.
-Camping at Houx Annex site which we have opted for again this year as it has the excellent facilities, is quite spacious and has very good access to the start finish straight.
-Race tickets for the Fri, Sat and Sun.
-Hospitality marque where there is up to minute race info, bar, and last time there were guest speakers through the weekend (Mark Blundell, former Stig Perry McCarthey and Derek Bell ) I'm not sure of the exact format for this year but i will try and get more details. Hopefully they might be showing some of the footy!

I'm going to be listing them on ebay in the next week or so. These cost me £440 so £220 per person. Insurance was included but not sure if this will be transferable or not. This is an excellent package and tickets for Houx Annex are very hard to come by this close to the event as it is a sought after site. I'm confident of getting a sale on ebay which will cover my costs. Just thought i would give a heads up before they get listed.

I'm going to run the idea past a mate of mine in the pub on Wednesday night - when will you be putting them on Ebay ?

...confirmed, footy being shown in the hospitality marque. Here is a link to the organisers web site. Go to the Le Mans section at the top for further details of hospitality etc.

I don't want to have to put these on ebay as may end up camping next to some numpty. First person to cover my costs of the tickets (£440) will secure.

I can find out for you. You may be able to change the ferry crossing times as well.

Just checked tickets and the return crossing is 7pm not 6pm. This may be flexible and date might be changeable to the monday for an additional fee. I will look into it.
If I remember correctly the tickets are a 5 day return. We are yet to get on the ferry we booked on. Just tend to rock up at calais and get on the next available ferry, hasn't been a problem thus far.

Andy,

Sorry for delay getting back to you, but my son is having some work issues at the moment (interviews) which I was hoping he would have resolved. I am interested in the tickets but need to get the above sorted before commiting.
I tried to pm you but your e mail account is closed. If you get an offer in the meantime I will understand.

Richard

....no worries. They are still available and not listed on ebay yet. They may well go on next week if i don't get any firm offers. I don't want to end up stuck with £440 worth of tickets.

Let me know if you resolve your issue and would like the tickets.

Tickets have just arrived and it turns out we are booked on the chunnel from Folkstone at 10.28 NOT the ferry. This should shorten the transit time across the channel.
