Thenay 4L International 2012 - 7.8 July - Whos going?

[pepper]

It would seem their funding doesn't live up to their ambitions. That is a big shame, but we still have Beaulieu and other meets to look forward to

Probably found that after the success of the fiftieth anniversary that the owners of the site wanted far more money for the next event, the organisers have taken a view that the 51st won't be as well attended and have decided not to go ahead with the event...

Knowing how companies tend to view things and having business plans that suggest that everything must increase year after year, it does come round and kick them in the face sometimes!

And don't forget that there will be another meeting in Germany, probably on the weekend of 15th July. I especially hope to see a Dutch delegation there! ;-)

Thanks Pepper..I will be there.
I go to Warwickshire every year to a village called Ettington..Know it ?

 

[pepper]

Yeay, I know Ettington! I live about 10km away, whereabouts are you based in France?

I have a house in the Vendee too

 

[Thibault de la Champagne]

I live just 22kms south of Angoulême. Where's your house in Vendee ?

 

[pepper]

Our house is between Chantonnay and La Chataigneraie, Tallud Ste Gemme is the name of our village. We have a run down pile of an old farm house.

 

[Thibault de la Champagne]

Tallud is 220kms from my house and a couple of hours ride on my motorbike!
Might see you there one day !!
