Puppy:
On the Quai de Southampton was there a link-span at both ends because I seem to remember the water being on my left when loading on TT boats?? Might be my brain though
Are you sure you wern,t backing on? That would make the water on your left.Regards Charlie

See you Sunday

Charlie, you are most likely right, as I said it’s my brain or was it the time I had spent in ’ Le Ferry Boat’ whilst waiting for the afternoon boat

Hi Puppy.It must have been the time in the Ferry Boat.I can remember driving on in a fog
even though the sun was shining brightly! Regards Charlie

See you Sunday!!

Can’t make it Sunday Jim, bit too far to come for a lemonade and packet of crisps, and to see a lot of old ugly buggers,
Monty owes me £200, and I’ve told him not to bother paying me back, put the money across the bar and all have a decent drink on me…he may moan at having to hand it over, but there should be enough big blokes to get the wad off him.
There will be a few thousand miles travelled that day I’m sure…without leaving the bar… Have a great time.
Hi all hi Fergie47 shame Dave never mind later on in the year maybe just emailed ya !
Regards Jimski

Yes Kevin got back about 1.30pm yesterday mate.
Been at a mates place down near La Trimouille which is south of Le Blanc and about 90k’s north of Limoges
He left early to take his kids to Disney so Sue and I took our time and made our way up to Calais via all old roads stopping off 4 times on the way!! Not one Euro was spent on tolls although weight limits were possibly abused!!! Still those are surely for ‘camions’ only!!!
See you all tomorrow
Regards Pat

Hi All,
What a great day good to see everyone,Angie and I hadn’t seen some for 25 years ! we covered some miles on Sunday
thanks to Tim for letting us invade his hostelry,and for supplying the food, and also to Ian for leaving his DKV card behind the bar
Might try and organise a coach trip to see Dave (Fergie47) in France if we can find a Routiers that’s still open !
Charlie I hope you haven’t drunk that bottle yet

Hi Richard.It was a really great day on Sunday.Great to see you and Angie.By the time I left I could smell the diesel
and the stink of brake linings burning was almost too much. 
Terryr Sparrow was in deep do dos.when I dropped
him off The lovely Beverley was halfway down the road with a brick in her hand.I did a handbrake turn and threw him out
Ive heard nothing since.Re the coach trip.If you can hire one with a low entry step then I will be ok.The bottle is still on the sideboard waiting for the outing to arrive.Regards to all.Charlie
