Chris Hi both, with ref to your stop in Sourdeval, did you know sourd is French for deaf? So, does that mean you were staying in Deaf Valley ????!!!!! ❤️

Roger Fletcher I always use IT myself - Impact Technology. Well done the pair of you, get home safe.

Chris Well done guys ! Who says brute force and ignorance are no good????? What a team, eh? xxx

Chris Everything still sounding so idyllic, guys. I think the frescoes in the Chapter House at the Abbaye could have been what the Catholics call the Stations of the Cross, I believe there are usually 14 of them. And we thought "staggering" was a very apt description of the monks drinking 15,000 bottles of wine !!!!!!!

Chris What's poor old Thetford ever done to you ???!!! Excellent lyrics otherwise ! Xx

Malcolm Trivess Hi Ali, Nice to read you Nick and Mary Lou on the road again, thanks for your suggestion on our blog about using France Passion sites. We did read up on the scheme but as it was our first real adventure in our Motorhome after the caravan we felt using Aires would be a good introduction so maybe next time. Your tales about them do make them seem attractive. Enjoy the rest of your trip.

Sara How did you know the matting was for migratory eels?!

Sara Good read

Chris We've been ! We know !!! Wish we were there again xxxxxx

Chris B I don't think "enormous Marie" would be very pleased being so described! Did she work at the Mairie, perhaps ????

Amanda Gunn Don't get too carried away, still only single figures here! Lovely sunshine today but a cold wind.

roger Excellent restaurant on the banks of the lake; all of our second load of snow has now disappeared and we're back to blue skies, sunshine and 9deg. C.

Roger Hope it's well worth the long wait that you've had and that you both enjoy a great trip.

Tracey Awww bless you! Obviously wasn’t meant to be lovely! So sorry, but hope you enjoy Christmas just the same!
