Here she is - the Sundance Kid !

Put your hands together for our newest LM2010 recruit - the Sundance Kid !!

She's a little larger than Lucy but who wants a size zero girl anyway ?

The Swift Sundance 630L is a truly luxurious, 6 berth motorhome with everyone enjoying space and privacy. Fully equipped with all the comforts of home from home for all the family. Equipped with cutlery, crockery, TV & DVD, CD player, fully integrated kitchen, oven & grill, luxury washroom, hotel quality interiors and comfy beds. The 630L motorhome incorporates flexible sleeping arrangements which consists of a rear lounge that converts to a double bed or twin beds, and a dinette that converts to a double bed and another double bed over the cab. Power assisted steering and powerful 2.3ltr Multijet Turbo diesel engines with a 6 speed gearbox, makes the 630L very easy to drive and park. This motorhome requires the driver to hold a C1 Category on their driving licence.

The layout is a little different but gives us what appears to be far more space inside.

Facilities are similar for keeping food and, more importantly, beer cool inside her.

Here's where we'll relax and watch the World Cup (and play Guitar Hero on Chadders' Xbox 360!)

Anyone for Scrabble ?

Sniffer's bed - well of course !!

The beautifying parlour - hopefully with no monkey poo flung everywhere this year !

Does my bum look big in this ?

So, all we need now is to finalise the alcohol arrangements for hand-pumped beer (Chadders - I believe that's your challenge) and sort out the menu.

Incidentally, 'the Kid' does have a bike rack on the back so I propose that we take push-irons this year for a novel way to travel around the surrounding area.

Bring it on..............

2010...........and we're off !!

It's been some time since the last post and it is, with a somewhat heavy heart, an update on the annual pilgrimage that is Le Mans 2010....

Since last year we appear to have lost 60% of the core team for one reason or another.

JT is no more......KL is taking at least a year's sabbatical and, shock, horror, the Chairman appears to have lost interest and has pulled out of this year.

So, I ask the remaining team to vote for a new chair - clearly I'll be putting myself up for the new role and hoping for someone to second me........

Anyway, on to happier news........LM 2010 is still a goer for the remaining team which is, Mr Chadders, Sir...........my good self.......and a blast from the past (drum, roll) Joey, aka Birthday Boy, aka..........the Canadian !!

The pitches are booked, the tickets (including the sexy grandstand seats from last year) are booked, the ferry (and overnight cabin) is booked AND Lucy (or a newer Lucy derivative) is also provisionally booked too......

I am in the early stages of sorting out the menu for LM2010 which, as I'm cooking for a reduced clientele, I have high hopes for and I am also looking for the coveted 'LM star' so the pressure is on !!

So, as the first update for 2010, I would like to wish Pikey a happy birthday for the coming week and also request that, as an LM parting gesture, he provides an LM09 'Yearly Summary' as is the tradition............what say you ex-Chairman ??

Until the next update........
