Hello again.
Look at those 2 handsome chaps decked out in their Spa Hotel robes!!
An 80 mile drive today through the forests of France on Tarmac cycle pistes. Unfortunately a headwind all the way to spoil it and a couple of spots of rain in the last mile. Mile after mile of pine forest and unfortunately the mosquito bites APL received on day 1 have now erupted in numbers exceeding 30, 4 of which are on my forehead resulting in some Clash of the Titans type boils compressing the cycle helmet. The bed sheet was at shoulder level and Mr Mozzie tucked in his napkin and settled in for a night of feasting.
Andy has been crying in his Juice/ coffee / beer all day about the Brexit so I need Foggy and Clegg to cheer him up or kill him and bury him in a ditch.
I sorted the bad shorts problem with some borrowed scissors and now have " Hot Pants" instead. If I don't return I have been recruited by a gay French dance troupe and will be touring the Vendee for the summer.
Andy once again selected the most expensive meal from the menu and my holiday cash is fast running out. Fortunately when I went to the toilet in my new trousers a couple of leather clad chaps ticked some notes in my waistband so I will be fine.
Blog of the Day for us. Fame at last.

Alan had a bad day today. Just like the British electorate in the EU election he scored a massive own goal. Alan's first breakfast course was THREE boiled eggs, loaded onto toast. His second course was a refreshing fruit bowl, but inexplicably his third course was a fry up with a mountain of scrambled EGGS. Alan paid for this throughout the day.
A great 80 mile ride today through quieter France, many cycle paths through pine forrests. Our journey was made easier by flat terrain and reasonable temperatures.
What will I do when Jon and David join us tomorrow, after riding as a pair for so long? I know, I will call all three of them Alan and see if I can get away with it. Blog entry late due to technical difficulties (not our fault) AB.

Liz It's slightly worrying that the skimpy shorts and swimwear look appears to be catching on! (Don't do it Andy)
