Lost in France.





It’s been a pleasantly uneventful run down through France, but tonight, in Valence we stumbled across a bar near the station with a barmaid who resembled Pocha Hontas. Several beers later Kevin and I ducked out leaving Ian and Steve to finish off the many beers. The photos show; a line up of us four somewhere in France, a meal (quite good from memory) some bread and water, as our budget is smaller than last year, and our new mate in Chalons en Champagne who photographed us pumping up tyres. This is the build up to real adventure.... it says here. This is Toby Savage for 1943 Jeep Rebuild Blog 29th December 2008. Just.

Splendid start! You seem to be taking two Leicester taxis along with you....presumably you will be picking up fares to subsidise the trip?

Love the table top shot. All it needs is an unopened packet of Gauloises, a la Deighton's 'Ou est le garlic'.
