On Tuesday we
planned a nice quiet day after yesterday’s travels and for lunch on Tuesday we
thought we would have a proper French lunch of bread and cheese.
The Brie cheese
was really excellent and most enjoyable as Noel had avoided fatty stuff due to bowel
issues but thought it would be ok only it was not. By mid-afternoon he was
suffering which lasted pretty much through to Thursday. I won't go in to the details but needless to say it was quite
uncomfortable but when typing this on Friday 15th matters seem to be improving.
On Thursday
evening we paid a visit to Ingrid in the Chateau for a glass of wine and to
discuss a joint visit to Dinard to see a mutual friend Gilles who has just had
an operation in St Malo to have a tumour removed from his kidney, but it would
appear she now has a UTI, which is always most unpleasant and dangerous if not
treated soon.
Ingrid is
still frustrated with the progress on the sale of the site as they keep neither
finding issues which are not really a problem. The last one being the historic
swimming pool which they want to close as they say its dangerous, which is
absolute rubbish. Afterwards we went to the Creperie for a light bite on the
way back to the caravan.
The site is
a little busier than May, which is to be expected, and yesterday evening an
enormous Motor Home turned up towing a bright red Fiat 500. The earth seemed to
move as the motor home went down the driveway and then they opened the slide
out. Must have cost a bundle!!
We also met
earlier in the week a very nice guy who is travelling alone on a remembrance
trip as his wife died six weeks ago and they were due to come back to the site
for a few days to relive a happy occasions when they first visited here in
2015. So to honour his wife he decided to come on the trip to try and relive
the past experience, how sad.
Oh well
shopping tomorrow…
