probably looking at the town centre and thinking:
sh*t, got to walk all the way over the bridge and up the hill back to the hotel :)

Well spotted Jens, all photos & aforementioned 'ring video actually courtesy of Jo as I was a little preoccupied at the time.

It all looks so slow on film & I thought I was doing pretty well at the time, sadly the only motors I managed to pass were other Jensens although I was definitely held up by some rice rocket through the Karoussel.

Look forward to meeting you all & doing it again this year, although Jo won't be with me this year due to imminent motherhood.

Incidently our baby is due on 20th June this year, so if you count back 9 months you'll see that the Saarburg trip was more eventful for us than anybody else, even Bill & Alan and they had to share the bridal suite!

Careful when entering the continent :shock: and I thought you were there for the cars ...

Little do we know about the English habits.

Congratulations and all the best :D

I'll leave Alan to comment on goings on within the bridal suite that weekend.........

The question is: Who's going to be brave enough to accompany me this year after what happened last year?
