Funky Claude

So anyone of a certain age or persuasion will be aware of this guy or at least his moniker.

Seeing as we’re heading for Montreux “on the lake Geneva shoreline “, tomorrow I thought I’d do a bit of local research.

Turns out there’s a beer festival on this weekend but I found a bar named Funky Claude’s, which led me to read up on him.

Every day’s a school day.

“Funky Claude was running in and out”. No prizes for spotting the lyric.

“Swiss time was running out” hopefully not before you get to enjoy the festival

Arrived. Drove down via Bescancon, lovely route. Nice pitch by the lake.
Sadly no more vignette stickers for the screen, they’ve gone digital.

Sitting watching the paragliders in the evening sun.
Couple of nights here then St Moritz.
