sparky_spit Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 Theo - Wow, what a brilliant set of pictures. One more, and they would make a superb desk calendar to remind you of the essence of the event. Nice to talk to you at the Millau services - good to put a face to the name "Beans".

Velocita Rosso Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 I thought that the final night location at Kerkrade was fabulous, a monastery serving beer!However I had heard that there had been a bit of bother with some monks earlier.The head abbot for thirty years had come into the main hall every morning and chanted "Good Morning" and the monks had chanted back "Good morning"Except one monk had got fed up with this and the following morning the head abbot came in and chanted "Good Morning" and the monks all chanted back "Good Morning" ,except for the one who was absoloutley fed up and he chanted "Good evening". At that they all looked around wondering who had chanted something different. As they all looked at Brother Doug, the head abbot chanted back "Someone chanted Evening"http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cOUZJRjW0yE&feature=related Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
