How to tell who is in our campsite?
Discussion
Got to thinking about this yesterday... We can tell who will be attending the Mulsanne Straight PH meet on Friday morning because there is an event in the calendar... If we desired, we could print a list of everyone who has indicated they will attend.
Is there someway we could develop a list of the PH'ers who will be camping in each site? That way we could look at the list and say "Oh, look, Joe Schmoe is staying in the same campsite as we are... I'll have to go look for him". As it currently stands, most people have said where they will be camping but you have to wade through dozens of posts to piece together a list if you were so inclined.
Suggestions? Start a new topic for each campsite and people post under their appropriate campsite, for example?

Or ask Ted to create a calendar entry for each campsite. The n when you add to your diary you can see who else has added the same campsite. At least I think that would work.

Pitch numbers will only apply to the campsites with reserved pitches... Maison Blanche and Bleu (and others) are free-for-alls, so you can't know where you will be before you get there. (Or, in Dusty's case, you don't know where you are even after you've gotten there :-) )
Forgot we only get the oh-so British allocated pitches in a few sites...
Last year I went in my brothers Celica which we used up a few PistonFest stickers on to advertise it for Ted.
The PistonFest Stickers were a bit bigger than A4 and stood out really well.
Perhaps we should just use these instead.
They also stay stuck at 135MPH and in rain (probably faster too!).
The good bit is that they also peel off really easily which we discovered on the Saturday when someone came along and nicked half of them!
I think the campsites in the calendar is the best idea.
As for pitch number, not really necessary, its easier to spot cars than pitch numbers anyway.
I'll mention it to Ted.

Was just constructing the email to Ted then I realised it would be easier if we just put our campsite in the description for the Le Mans calendar entry.
By putting what car you are in it makes it easy enough to locate people.
HOWEVER. This is a public forum in a nasty world and it also will give nasty pikeys the chance to find out where your lovely beastie will be and when it will be alone.
Thinking about this again though the whole of Le Mans is covered in sports cars that wkend so it makes no difference if there is a directory of them or not!
SO.....
If we all makes sure we put our campsite in the description then we will be able to find how we are camping near. We could put our car and colour too to make it easier.

Nice one Ted.
If you can then do some stickers with the usual PH logo/moto and our name AND some PF ones like last year.
(Because the PF ones have dates on).
The PF ones must have been popular too since someone stole ours at LM! (Although we found them stuck over all the neighbouring cars so perhaps there was a drunk individual at LM last year).
