Everyone back o.k. I hope. We'd just like to say loads of thanks to Barbara and Geoff for their terrific organisation. (Only what we've come to expect I must say !) Everything seemed to run like clockwork although I imagine there was a lot of paddling going on underneath . We just hope it's on for next year??? We all had a great time despite losing an engine on Monday. Many thanks to all the generous offers for drives in other cars. regards Naomi

Same again - many thanks to Barbara and Geoff for their superb organisation. Thanks also to Andy Mac and team and especially to all those participating. Lots of new friends and I hope to make it to No. 10 next year.

I had a great week and I wasn't even driving. From an instructors point of view, you were all top class pupils - I only went off twice...
Just spoken to Barbara - they're still out there, enjoying a more peaceful second week. She even mentioned next year, so here's hoping... |

Also from me many thanks to the two top organisers! Had a fab week! Although it has been my sixth LeSept I must say I'll never get bored with them! All very unique in their own way so really looking forward to next years event!
I also would like to mention all the very generous people who allowed me and my brother to take their cars out on track! So thanks so much to Marius, David, Kevin, Roger, Keith, Paul and my parents! Hope I haven't forgotten anyone
BTW Keith I promise the beers are defo on me next year!

Excellent holiday, many thanks to Barbara and Geoff for all the effort that went into making it such a success.
What a great bunch of people to spend a petrolheads week with . Hope to meet up again, rumour has it that Croft and Brands GP may well attract one or two .
Car safely delivered to Millwoods for its MOT now. Got to be some sort of recommendation if it passes after its little French workout .
Only problems I had were a bit of rough idling cured when it cooled down a bit - was that 'ot or what, and a battery that gave up on day one. Thanks to Roger for the loan of his portable jobby and to Leclerc for a £20 one of me own . Oh, and me number plate fell off on the way home, must have been the heat melting the double sided sticky stuff.

What a great week. Only spun of twice ( so that I could win a spinning top )    . Many thanks Barbara & Geoff. Desperately saving for next year in the hope that you take it on again.

Roger, I didn't realise you were an "Instructor", I thought Austin was the instructor and you were there to polish his race boots      
Great to meet you, hope to catch up with you at some point.
Had a great time, thanks to Barbara and all the team.

cheeky get!
I saw 'Powers' yesterday actually - he said he wished he'd stayed for the last day but I told him he was lucky, I had to sit next to some lunatic in a blue seven...
Is it just me or does Austin look more like a vicar than a race driver?

Top week! many thanks to Barbara, Geoff and all the team... particularly including Roger, Austin and the McMillen team. More track time than I have had in the previous year - great fun and the car appears to have forgiven me for the hard treatment!! Great bunch of people, I look forward to meeting you all again
