All French cars welcome to Battle of Waterloo

Sunday 17 June

10am to 2pm ( participants requested to arrive around 9.30 )

located at Queanbeyan Park entry off Campbell st

Markets and coffee onsite

see you there
 
Will this still be on? Top temp of about 4, windy, rainy, possibly snowy.

As everyone knows, none of the British cars will work if it is raining.
 
yes still on, unless the sky falls in and snow descends from the hills,

forecast is a tropical 7 degrees and only 2mm of that rare item called rain

bring your Beret in your French car and beat the Brits by numbers.
 
Thanks to the organisers for, well, organising it, and arranging for there to be no rain, little wind, and the temp to reach a balmy 6 degrees - and stay there.

Well done to the blue 404 cab (that is cabriolet, not taxi-cab) that got the Mayor's choice of French car.

With art repeating history, the Brits won again on the day, 47 to 36.
 
Some photos (in the first 2 you can see "bits" of that gorgeous 404 cabriolet).

(and before anyone says anything: Apologies for cutting the front out of the 404 when I took the first photo. I was a bit biased and wanted the 505 in the background in a nice "frame" :wink2:)
