I had an email afew months ago about volunteering to marshal the TdF , and i fancied the idea, it asked for experience and qualifications, so I applied.. I have been a motorsport marshal for 30 yrs I have a current FA ticket, I have been trained in crowd control , I have been a stage safety officer fro 5 years on a World Rally Championship stage I speak French I Speak Dutch I speak bad german.
I received a reply today They want me to attend a training day.... OK i thought they are just covering themselves, then I read on...
The training day is in either London or Kent, ( The majority of the UK like me lives in neither of those places) if I attend I may still not be selected!
How much volunteer time do these people want for their money? Considerign of course that they aren't paying any money!

Be a spectator, enjoy the day - and never mind them. Oh! Please send me (off list) your email address - I might want a bit of translation! John
