    Sounds like a good idea. Count me in.

    If the weathers good could take the dingo armoured car.

    If you take the Dingo then I'll ride there on 2 Div's last surviving Norton. :)

    I like Veurne. Even the kids are happy to get up early if they know we can stop there for breakfast on the way to the boat but it doesn't shout out 'Dynamo' to me.

    ...The easiest place for me would be a meet on the Dyle Line....

    I think the song they were all really singing there at the time in 1940 was "Why Are We Waiting?"

    Ahhh dammit. That weekend is always an annual reunion for me and otherwise I would really want to come.

    Count me in, my Grandfather was in the Royal Warwicks and on one of the last boats out of Dunkirk
    I've been living near Paris for the past 20 years, so could help with any translations.

    Still not sure if it's happening yet and what if anything we'd do apart from drinking shed loads - That date seems to be a no no as it's a French Holiday apparently and the beaches will be full of locals.

    Will update later when I know what my new rota is, assuming I get the job :lol:

    With the new French beer taxes, I'll only be drinking what I can carry ! I reckon accomodation will be OK away from the coast but the ferry companies probably won't miss the chance to put the price up.
