Over the last few days we have lived pretty much the same as before with shopping trips to Gramat and by Friday evening the temperature had got much warmer still and more is promised. On Saturday we went to the Bar to watch qualifying for the F1 GP in Valencia only to find that the TV and satellite had been messed up by somebody pressing too many buttons. However after about an hour they got it started just in time for the final qualifying sector 3 and so we could see the starting grid for tomorrow.
On Saturday afternoon after watching we then jumped in to the swimming pool which was reasonably busy and spent a good couple of hours enjoying our selves before heading back for a great steak and salad. Gosh it was hot standing by the BBQ.
On Sunday we watched the race and again the TV and Satellite box had been messed up and as there was nobody available to fix it Noel had a go and remembered what the man did yesterday and finally eight minutes before the race after almost thirty minutes of messing around he succeeded.
Again we hit the pool as it was even hotter today and with the temperature hitting 37 degrees Centigrade it’s was to hot anywhere except if you were in the pool.
A few days earlier some new arrivals parked about fifty yards down the road from us started chatting across a thirty yard gap and one guy was a Welshman (and perhaps used his loud voice for chasing sheep or whatever) but for the last few nights they have a shouted across the road rather than walk across the small gap and have a chat and this had gone on for several hours per night and bloody annoying and so on Sunday night Noel had enough and went down and told them to very kindly stop which was not greeted well. However they did stop and mission accomplished but it is supposed to be a quiet camp site and not for 50 year old kids to shout across the road.
Monday was also too hot to do anything and so we hit the pool and then the shade and by the time we went to bed the temperature in the caravan was about 32 degrees Centigrade and rather warm for sleeping, Oh well that’s life.
On Tuesday we did a little shopping in Labastide Murat and followed by a coffee or two overlooking the town square and watching the traffic go by, well I say traffic more a couple of tractors and two cars after about forty minutes.
The afternoon we got some good news that the window should be repaired tomorrow and so now we had to dash around to find cover at the house which hopefully should work and then back to the pool for some more sun and swimming although the weather over the next couple of days looks a bit iffy.
Maybe a trip out tomorrow if the weather is not good.
