Calais, France - 3rd May 2008

By: Steve & Helly

Back to Calais for the journey home. We arrived at the port very early and would have had to pay to get on an earlier ferry so we drove towards the lighthouse and found a cafe to while away some time.

Dover, England - 3rd May 2008

By: Steve & Helly

Back in Dover, how sad.

Still, I saw lots of 2CVs and an Elephant Bleu so what more could I ask?

I'm not back to France now until September.

MMM! Elephonse has just found out he now has to share Monsieur Alfonse with Pierre Bear.

He is not impressed and is sulking!

Devizes, England - 20th June 2008

By: Steve & Helly

Hurrah! It's 2CV camp weekend.

Look at all the lovely 2CVs!

I've decided not to sulk any more, after all, who could remain sulky with all these lovely cars about!

Harry turned up with his tent. For some reason he was sporting his ghost t-shirt and ghostly sign. Pierre Bear & I told him all about toy voyaging and tried to pursuade him to become a voyager himself. Unfortunately his Mum doesn't own a computer so we promised to take photos of him whenever we meet him at 2CV events.

Calne, England - 12th July 2008

By: Steve & Helly

Look,

A parcel arrived today. It was addressed to Steve & Helly but inside was a present from Mistigree for me.

How exciting, infact, the present was actually from Tiger Tom!  He knows me so well. A lovely old ripple bonnet 2CV fridge magnet. There were also some lovely violet flavoured madeleines, which did not last very long! Helly rather liked them! The lovely postcards are wine related, what else!

The photo shows the empty packet of madeleines - told you they didn't last long! Mabel the kitten joined in the excitement too.


Thank you Tiger Tom and Mistigree!!!

Chesil Beach, England - 20th July 2008

By: Steve & Helly

Hurrah, out in Monsieur Alfonse!

What a great drive, to Dorset and then along the South Coast.

I sat on the bonnet of Alfonse to have my photo taken and then admired the view of Chesil Beach.

Calne, England - 7th August 2008

By: Steve & Helly

Much as i like sharing Monsieur Alfonse with Pierre Bear he's a big too adventurous for my liking! All this talk of flying, it makes me shudder just thinking about it.

So, I have a surprise for him.

Having sold Molly as two 2CVs was too much, this fell into Steve & Helly's hands . . .

May I present . .

Pierre Bear's new home . . .

Artois!!

But, shhh! He doesn't know yet!
