go buy a couple of Solar showers off ebay or from a camping shop and it won't matter either way!

Showers?

Isn't this a Le Mans thread?

Hmmm... Yeah while not showering is an option for the full Le Mans experience..

After 4 days even the worst ice-cold Le Mans campsite shower is a relief...

Can anyone confirm the existance / non existance of showers..

Indeed, to which there are two clear solutions....

1. If you are a tekkie bloke who likes to engineer a solution, spend your entire winter trying to build some kind of heating/showering device that you will invariably find won't work at LM the following year....

2. Or try one of these http://www.maplin.co.uk/Module.aspx?ModuleNo=48810...

Heat water on stove top, or in solar bags, or in some kind of home made solar system if you have the inclination. Buy a cheap bucket/bowl in Carrefour, drop the submirsible pump in and voila you have a shower without waiting for three hours in a queue (a la MB)...

biggrin

Or the 3rd solution of getting back to nature and remembering that you have beer to drink at 9am while everyone else queues for a scrub.

If you're showering on your own pitch you can drink beer at the same time biggrin

I'm not bothered about being clean (I've got wetwipes biggrin) but if it's hot a shower is a godsend.

Stayed here last two years - No showers but you can work across road for those to karting nord - the ones tucked in next to the karting track are not so busy (they will be next year now !!!!!!!!!!!). its ok and I think I would be happier there than than BJ.
