I can understand how going to Le Mans can't be as much fun now that it has turned into a family trip for you, as it must be tough looking after your family rather than enjoying the race and doing your own thing and not worrying about them. I always go with my mates as a kind of drunken lads hoilday like you used to (But with a little bit of security work chucked in), because then that way I only have myself to really look after and not Clair (My girlfriend) too while I'm drunk. Le Mans is always something I did before I met Clair, so she isn't too bothered about not coming and understands it's my time with the boys. Going with family to Le Mans can be fun, but going to Le Mans in a group of lads is a different kind of fun
Shame you are going to be missing it, but with you going as a family and living further away from France than me. Your trips there are extremely more expensive than mine, for one thing I can get to Le Mans and back to near enough the ferry on the way home on one tank (Not in the Supra). Where as for you it must be a few tank fulls? Also because I'm paying for just myself it's cheap as chips, then buying stuff like food and drink for myself is a lot cheaper too.
Save your money and come on the Dragonball, as I think you'll enjoy that more
Here's a few pics of Chateaux KamaSupra, the pics of the villa are a little blurred as I had to enlarge them from my phone camera Not sure if you remember Shane and I telling you about the Aston we were cruising about Le Mans in, but here's a few pics of that too
