MLU @ Normandy 2019 meet up: 4 June

[Ron Pier]

I came to the Lonques site on the 2nd to find it mostly empty and then again on the 6th to find it busy but no Hanno. I did meet up with Tomas Higgins but the language barrier left him vague about who I was! But someone translated in the end. Ron

Sylvain, Ron,

Sorry to have missed you, I would have liked to meet in person!

I did meet quite a few fellow MLU'ers, it was good to see familiar faces and see a few new ones as well. Will upload photos of the meet up soon.

Great to see all these vehicles together

[Alex van de Wetering]

What a great meeting it was.......the field quickly filled with trucks, cars... but also carriers and bikes. It was great to put a face with some of the forum names!

Silvain; pity I missed seeing your Gun Tractor in person, but good to her the truck performed great and it was great meeting you in person.

Hanno, thanks for organising this.....and James, thanks for getting us all properly dressed in an MLU shirt!

Thanks for all the great photos Alex.

Barry, I have some more.....hopefully I won't get expelled by Hanno for uploading too much pics on our MLU space

No digital photography and colour film was expensive back in 1984 when I camped with the British in Normandy.

Of course I was much younger back then as well and what is now 'Canada House' was just a boarded up beachfront property.
