Chaps,

I have been to this for a number of years and it is a very good venue in the heart of Cognac country. (normally it clashes with Usk but its moved a few weeks into Feb)

Everyone is very friendly and the format is very good with a lazy start on Saturday and an evening Buffet of Food and drink in the same venue.

There are a small pool of FoGr players in France. Last year I think 6 at Chaniers. However if we got a contigent from the UK sorted it may draw more.

I have a house not too far from the event so I could put some players up and maybe make a long weekend of it.

If interested drop me a note and we ill see if we can put a plan together that works.

cheers
Jim

[daveallen]

Many thanks to Denis and company for an excellent competition and for their extraordinary hospitality!

Also for not slapping an Englishman whose army name was surprisingly similar to a well known French idiom

Dave
