Hi Guy's, you aint gonna belive this one, I'm off to Le Mans tomorow 8th July for the 24 hour classic or something similar,anyway I am going over to work at the Bounty Lakes as the owners hire out the fields and complex for camping and need help in the catering and cleaning department,serving breakfasts and eve meals mainly, in exchange I get travelling expenses,food free fishing and get to see the race if I want(I'd rather fish!!),and best of all I get a free weeks fishing when I want(space availabilty),hopefully in Sept when I can combine our lake. I have not got a clue about The Bounty Lakes, I leave here at 6pm Tuesday so if anybodys got any info on the place it would be much appreciated. Thanks and will let you know how I got on when i get back,regards Trev.
