Currently on the penultimate day of our 12 days in France.
Initially, Montlhery for the Vintage Revival.
Then Clisson - Loire-Atlantique - mainly food and Muscadet wine. (Long drive on the Peage to get there)
Now in Brittany, via the A roads, enjoying the sunshine and a Breton festival,
Reactions to the Morgan have been the usual smiles, waves, toots of car and lorry horns, along with numerous photos.
Our 4/4 has also prompted a chat with a 1920s Citroen C9 owner as well as the owner of a wonderful very early 2cv.
Very saddened for the two MSCC members at (surprisingly) Amboise, but it won’t stop us from visiting France.

Mary queens of Scots and Leonardo Da Vinci both lived in Amboise, poor Mary didn’t fare so well when she came to Britain.

Mary queens of Scots and Leonardo Da Vinci both lived in Amboise, poor Mary didn’t fare so well when she came to Britain. We stayed at Amboise last July after LeMan.  Da Vinci's home is a nice place to visit and is sponsored by IBM, I think. Lovely area and great for visting Chateau's and some very good wines too  Never had any issues in France but idiots are everywhere. Sorry these guys were victims to such a mindless act.

Driving a Mog in France is a pleasure, we had nothing but fun & nice comments.
Idiots are everywhere sadly.

This was our third time in Amboise (indeed we were there at the same time as PeterG last year and said hi) and despite the vandalism I reported, we'd go back there again in a flash. It's a great place to be based when "doing" the Loire. However, I'll now be a bit more cautious when parking and remember that there are morons everywhere including unfortunately La Belle France

Last weekend we had a 3 day Music Festival in Dartmouth being held for it's 22nd year and this is a totally fun and violence free event.
Unfortunately 2 cars parked in the main car park were "walked" over on the Saturday evening, the idiots are everywhere.
There will always be isolated incidents.
