This long weekend there have been military reenactors camped in the Citadelle in Blaye. Most of them portray WWII military - Free French, German,Resistance etc complete with Jeeps, Trucks, Motor Cycles etc.,
However.....here are two photographs that may interest some of you.

Good photos. That fellow really has it all down on a note doesn't he? He obviously spent a lot of time and money getting that rig just right.

Always on the lookout for a holiday, if there is a public holiday on a Thursday or a Tuesday the French make a 'Bridge' (Faire un pont) and take the Friday or the Monday off as well. :cool: :cool:
