Henry Chavancy et Isabelle Ithurburu au tournoi 7 de cœur

Henry Chavancy 7 de coeur rugby Versailles
The 7 of heart rugby tournament was held under the patronage of Henry Chavancy, French rugby XV player and Isabelle Ithurburu, TV sports presenter. The photos aren't too good because VDP was far away (and argghhh can't run!!!)

Les parrain et marraine du tournoi 7 de cœur étaient Henry Chavancy du Racing Métro 92 et Isabelle Ithurburu. Les photos ne sont pas très bonnes parce que VDP était loin (et arghhh ne peut pas courir !!!)

tu n'as pas du beaucoup toucher au ballon du coup

Yep, some serious looking cumulus clouds building up there.

Some fine images here. Ithurburu is an unusual name. Where is she from? And, it seems that you have been having walking problems for quite a while. I know that you stumbled when visiting Livorno. What did you do to yourself?

Il vaut mieux des nuages la-haut que sur le terrain.

Olivier said...

tu es bien dans l'action (et cela sans courir, bravo)

Dina said...

Nothing better than people shots (unless it's people-in-action shots).

Good on ya for getting out and about as best you can.

@ Jack: it is a Basque name, in her case from the French Basque country! Thanks for noticing!

We are all such complicated people.

I think that you're doing brilliantly Ciel.. Can just imagine how fab you'll feel when all healed again :) Love the rugby shots, like I said before big men, small shorts :)

You got some great action shots even if you were not up close. MB

VP said...

You got some fine pictures anyway!

Hope your ankle gets better soon, it must be frustrating at events like this. Love the action shots though! :)

I remember seeing a bumper sticker that said "Rugby players eat their dead!" These are tough people!

When we moved here (in 2008), I was shocked to learn how much the French love rugby... I thought it was an English thing. Who knew !?

Isabelle certainly catches my eye!
