A quiet day with nice lunch

A slow start to the day having breakfast on our balcony overlooking the driveway!! however we are surrounded by bushes and trees so quite acceptable. We were not sure if a friends of ours was going to join us for lunch be he did confirm ad we agreed to meet at our hotel at around 12.40 only he was delayed by a group protesting about something. However he arrived and we had a brief chat then headed back to Cajarc where our restaurant we have booked is located.



We have used this restaurant several times over the past 10 years and pleased it is still managed by the same owner that we met in the good old days as the chef was learning his trade in the Holiday Inn Hotel at Leeds/Bradford Airport and where he had a Russian girlfriend. But due immigration issues they had to lave and he arrived in Cajarc  to start his own restaurant ina building that need a complete refurb. We have previously brought some American friends here and they thought it was really great.



We had an excellent lunch , not cheap, but they had taken care of my food requirements very well and so I was happy to enjoy without fear and so it proved to be the case after 24 hours. It was a very hot afternoon with temperatures around 34C and with tummies decided that swimming would not be the best thing and so spent some time in the room and then Noel watched the Chelsea vs Liverpool match which was really good and the start of the new team looks quite positive and I believe there are still a few guys to start as well.

In the evening we watched a little bit of TV and started to watch a fi on Netflix but the sound volume was so low whilst the TV in the room had a sound restriction and although we turned on subtitles we soon got bored and then watched a couple of things on You Tube.

Lights out and its still rather warm
