Dear Niall,
I would like to congratulate you and your committee on another excellent show yesterday. As a longstanding Citroen enthusiast and owner, we are always made so genuinely welcome to such a well organised show, which is quick and easy to get into and out of….big enough to be interesting and small enough to be intimate and genuine. Well done….again!
I attach a “glamour” image of two lovely 2CV genuine enthusiasts, sisters Emer and Aoife, members of the Irish 2CV Club (Dermot Kennedy’s Group, based in Baltimore, West Cork), beside their respective steeds!
Many thanks again.
Frank Bergin, ex Dublin Area CCC rep.
