Not yet Morty, they only get to little Luxembourg on Thursday. I texted Wigley last night too, but no reply yet

I guess they are still somewhere in the mountains....

They were fine when we left them last Wednesday morning standing in the teeming rain on the harbour car park at St Tropez. In fact they were the lucky ones cos it didnt really stop raining until friday afternoon! The little bit we did was terrific - the only problem is how to get a gang together every time we want to go to France. Its dead dull driving on your own!

I spoke to Mr Wigley this morning (sorry if I woke you up, Stu )

They are having a great time, but are very tired (too many late nights, huh?), but I'll meet them all for dinner in Vianden this evening. Then it's over to Morty tomorrow!

Cheers

Ian

Bonetteers Found!

The Bonetteers were found late this evening holed up in a charming hotel in Vianden, north Luxembourg. Tired for sure, but with plenty of stories to tell.

Watch this space for news of Spaci's attempts to catch a VERY fast Audi, and to hear how Matt's car was licked clean by a cow. Many more AMAZING tales to come once they all return home....

Why? Are they sooo fragile?
Or have you filled them with local liquors?

BTW: Did Spaci have his bath like I asked ?

Sorry Morty - Spaci declined the offer of a dip in the ornamental pond beside the hotel carpark, much to the relief of Petra, the owner of the hotel and a Hot Orange MCC!

By the way, would our Belgian cousins be interested in a possible MINI rally around the north of Luxembourg sometime next summer?

More pix as promised - sorry about quality, but it was dark!
