Yo Pete ! How are ya ? Crossed you today just past the douane... I spotted a couple more scoobs round our way at the weekend. One 2001 WRX WRC blue (with a 131 number sticker on it) and one 2003 WRX WRC Blue, both at Intermarche/Stationmarche. Didn't get a chance to talk to the owners, maybe next time. We'll get a contingent of our own going over here and go for a run 
All those scoobs in CERN, surely they must know about ScoobyNet?!?!
Might get a chance to meet up with you this weekend if you're around.

Festa, I hate to tell you this mate but the Catalunya region is in flames - just watched a piece on the french news about it. No aircon *and* heading for bush fires = 
Good luck ! Take plenty of water with you and a cooler - the heat is killing ppl here, mostly older folks but young 'uns are also starting to drop from dehydration (a techno rave in this heat? they must be mad)
Over 41 degrees again today and more of the same predicted for tomorrow :0

TVR Gary - yeah, you're right about the tunnel being expensive (35 euros return) and slow (50-70km km limit). Still, it had to be done with all windows down tootling along in second/third at 60...nice rumble Mind you, that lasted all of 30 seconds until the family started complaining about the fumes

Hey Frenchie! Hows tricks. I rekon we could get a couple of Scoobs together. There are about 5-6 at CERN. A Black STi and a few WRX's and GT's.
Had a few probs with mine lately, with engine light, which I'm trying to get sorted. Had a cam sensor changed at the Meyrin garage, but the light came on again, so I took it to Emily Frey, who checked it over and are waiting for a response from Subaru, might need some warrenty work doing waiting to hear .Plus all this hot weather, poor girls feeling it, need water inj I think!

Gary - nice pics...the place looks very familiar but I dunno who that bloke is Good shots of the 'ring too. One day I'll get there, wife permitting
Swisscooby - sorry to hear about the probs mate. Emil Frey is probably the best place to go (and the nearest too unless you fancy a trip to Bourg en Bresse). I saw in your profile that you like footie...did you hear about the friendly next Wednesday between Switzerland and France in the Stade de Geneve? I'm gonna try to find out where to get tickets and take my little fella along. I'll drop you a line by email.

I wish!
Nah, the Clio has to go back to Toulouse to get serviced once a year as that's where Tia's family are
<edit>
And neither of them have air-con althought her mother's Twingo 
does
