We are by a coffee stand and some seating in the trees.

[Ghosty]

Just seen your message, see you in 10.

[Ghosty]

There's more than one? The one I can see is in front of the big brown building. I'll go back there in 20 mins.

This one?

[Ghosty]

Er, we can't find you. We shall continue to browse. I have a black jacket and red shirt on, if you spot us say hello.

[Frogchod]

I'll be at my van at 12.30, beers on board. Meanwhile shite has been purchased.

[Ghosty]

French food is OK apparently.

Cool, Mobylettes were produced by Motobecane.

 

I thought it had that look about it

[doubleyeller]

Something about the way they always serve the chips in those little baskets annoys me. One is never enough, and two is too many. ...

I'm back home from the desolate flat lands of north Normandie and back in the rolling hills of south Normandie.

We did eventually meet up, then I lost them again, easy to do as there was a lot to drool over. 

The Jawa I was looking at on Saturday evening is still there as the seller wanted 1000 euro which I thought was 600 too much.

There was a Motobecane 350 for a very reasonable starting price of 600 but it had no log book, so that war ruled out.

I wound up with the puple AV52 pictured above. This does have a log book

Of course I bought some miniature shite too. 

[Frogchod]

Oops, pressed the wrong button...

To continue, loads of stuff to see, not many pics as my phone has the memory of a goldfish.

I've seen this around Normandie a few times:

Another Ford that I like, a Taunus 17 something, I don't know, but look at it..

As I said, I'm home and the most pressing thing to do before reloading the van for work tomorrow was obviously to add

fuel to the Mobylette and see what happened.

Blue smoke:

And working yellow headlight

Thankfully the purple paint comes off when splashed with petroil.

 

A good weekend

[egg]

Looks fun, I expect the GGG enjoyed it! Pics of mini shite when you have the time please...

[Guest Hooli]

Are the GGG DEAF YET?

Are the GGG DEAF YET?

Nope, we managed to find a new exhaust clamp in the perfect size. The old one had jettisoned itself some time last night after we gave up on it.

Onwards to Gauloises and beerage.

[Conrad D. Conelrad]

Did any of you buy anything particularly cool?

[Guest Hooli]

That's not possible in frogshire

[Frogchod]

A purple mobylette and plastic noreves aren't cool ?

I hit the like button for your cool purchase! I'm waiting to hear what the R16 is laden down with.

[Squire_Dawson]

Ahem agh ack ah cough wump.

[Ghosty]

Breakfast.

[egg]

Are you back yet?

Still not home? Anyone?

I've just got in, the Squire about half an hour ago, and Junkman is shortly to arrive.

 

The amount of night works on the motorways was a nightmare.

 

R16 exhaust seems to be blowing at the manifold, the clamp we got in Caen has held out though.
