I have more faith in an Airbus A320 making it through an ash cloud than some of the newly built and still being built Minis that are planning to go.
Real Clubmans have a square nose.Seriously.

Has anyone here been on the Liège-Brescia-Liège run. I think a couple of Mini's should definitely head over there! I was staying in a holiday apartment in Ljubljana in Slovenia and watched the cars on parade, but there were no Minis. I was especially disappointed as it was billed as a small car rally!

Not to worry Billy,if we don,t get a flight we get our money back and being stranded at home is better than being stranded half-way up a Swiss mountain with the temperature needle out the window.

We are considering going the southern route around Paris might not be near Troyes at all.

All IMM'ers, REMEMBER to print off your Tickets and bring them with you. If you don't have your ticket, you will be charged full price again.

Can't see us going any further south than Troyes from Calais on the first day.

Wow, that is preparation! When I travel I always end up forgetting something, so I am seriously impressed with your planning
