St Vaast?........nm

Don't know where it is but did'nt Reggie Perrin have a chain of them?

St Vaast - long odds

i wd agree - but the car number plates say 22 which is departement of cote d'armor just west of st malo. So it could be st brieuc, or along there. More advanced google-cheats than me might now search sl's posts for recent trips along the lines of "went to paimpol, had big engine problems, came straight home a week later, bah". Treguier er st brieuc, that lot.

Grot, Grumble and Jazz

I wonder if they do mail order? I'm liable to get kicked out of the Cruising Association if they receive any more of my subscription envelopes from Gentleman's Friend Publications...

i dont know where it is but dont grot in french mean GROW ?

"i dont know where it is but dont grot in french mean GROW ?"

Err, no. Grotte means a cave, as opposed to cave whch means cellar. However, grot doesn't seem to mean anything according to my petit Larousse. Maybe it means something in the local lingo, like 'ra' apparently means 'the' in Scuttlebutt Scottish?

 

[tcm]

it's the name of the patron innit? Or in this case patronne - Annick Grot - if annick is a girls name which i think it is?

 

[Twister_Ken]

"if annick is a girls name"

Yep, also sometiimes Anik.

Wild guess Chris - how about Lezardriux!

I too think you may be right. The one up the hill on the right..... why is it any marina in brittany involves a hill to the town.

 

[snowleopard]

Oi!! That's cheating!!

p.s. how's the new boat?

 

[pessimist]

Dunno, can't see the picture.
