Were you in Thenay Bobble? Have our French friends turned up early?

Or others reserved the best pitches...

Come on team, we'd better not be late!
 
wow, a life times collection and a life times work! Thats the number of 4l's in the uk
 
Wow! Great find Bobble. Where were they? Do some of them look as if they need a little love and attention? What's the building they are in front of?

Did you take the video on your phone? Mmm... Best thing would probably be to BlueTooth it to your iPod or to one of the others phones and get them to email it.
 
Well they were in France near Saint Hymer, Lower Normandy, most of them looked as if they've been there some time, i do plan to go back at some point and enquire ( as there's a nice supply ) not going to have time when i go to Thenay because i'm working the next week but will go soon.
 
I have just driven past the same place on my way home from brittany (all route nationale) it is indeed a fantastic place (and the surrounding villages) if i get time i will pop back in the morning. ( i am staying overnight in honfleur) also 100 yards back of this place is what looks like a great junk yard with not just cars but old iron stoves, sinks, etc etc
 
Oh well done, if you go back you will have to find out if they are for sale or just for show ( as advertising that is ) never saw the junk yard though, you will have report back and let us know, i should be going back over in a couple of months so i might a wander.
 
We were there last year and stopped to have a look, but there were only about four or five R4's, and more 2CV's, they had a beautiful 2CV in the showroom part.
Alan.
