18th July- I have lost a day’s blog and Noel’s chair has broken –What a Crisis!

When reviewing the Blog we noticed that the Blog for the 16th July was missing as now neither of can remember what we did but I guess it was not important. Probably more of the same really with the usual breakfast, Lunch and dinner with some swimming and reading and sleeping and so if we miss a Blog again just assume that is what we did.

Anyway, today the 18th Noel was comfortably sitting on his relaxer chair and when trying to get out the whole lot collapsed under him and perhaps lucky that he did not get poked by one of the aluminium legs. We purchased these ‘Concept’ fold up chair about three years ago but they have this annoying habit of losing screws or the just getting loose. We have complained to the manufacturer who promised to send us some more screws but they never arrived. So tomorrow we will try to find a new one so that we both can relax and read at the same time. We spent a good hour and a half at the pool today with a great temperature and there was only about eight or ten people lying around the pool enjoying the sun or plodding up and down doing lengths. Thank heavens for no kids as it makes the pool area really comfortable unlike last year when at certain times with kids screaming and running around the pool and jumping in to play volley ball thought of murder and mayhem come to mind, but not this year thank heavens.

It was curry night abd we had chicken korma and mushroom rice and all very pleasant before heading off to watch ‘Up in the air’ only this time it started OK but stopped towards the end and in the caravan lights you could see three scratches on the disc. Watch out Amazon its on its way back as soon as we get back to blighty.So tomorrow is set aside to look for a new relaxer chair and we shall start in Gramat.

Finally, for those who may be having bad weather is very beautiful here with temperature around 28/30 degrees Centigrade during the day with bright blue sky but cooling down nicely at night just in time for bed ,bloody perfect in fact.
