The event was planned to be over two days but our group only attended on the Friday which turned out to be fortunate as the heavens opened on the Saturday. Our cars, not all Jaguars I am afraid, were on show in front of the ch\u00e2teau along with some vehicles from a local club. The fete itself had many artisanal stalls attracting the shoppers amongst us and also live music, a good selection of food outlets and of course a bar. A great get together in excellent weather into the late hours when we could retire to the superb rooms offered by the ch\u00e2teau. Our thanks to Sarah and George for their hospitality.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Into early August and a group of us travelled to Saintes on the Charente river for a day long cruise. The cruise was on an solar powered electric boat capable of accommodating up to 150 people and Graham, the trip organiser, managed to keep our group together on the open top deck where we could watch the Charente, and the world go by. We enjoyed a leisurely lunch at the Moulin de la Baine restaurant before the return trip down the river. A very relaxing day out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Rapport JECSOF\/A pour le mois de juillet<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Les plans les mieux con\u00e7us, comme on dit.
