Housekeeping day

We are leaving tomorrow morning and so we need to start preparing and begin to pack the car as we want an early start so that we can take the long route without touching Toll Roads or even Motorways.

Noel made some scrambled egg for breakfast which was very nice having to do the job using a frying pan as there were no non adhesive small pans available but the result was excellent. The eating of scrambled eggs for Noel can be difficult some times as the result may interfere with life for about an hour or so and so it did.



So we packed our bags in the morning and and partly loaded the car so we can just put two bags and go.  We have decided that tomorrow we will visit the Boulangerie about one mile from the Hotel and buy some croissants for breakfast and sit outside the shop on the little table provided and also some baguettes for out lunch. Once completed we stopped for lunch which was smoked salmon on French toast and ver nice indeed it was.

In the afternoon we visited reception and handed back the towels and dressing gowns used for the Spa and chatted to the owner about our stay and paid the bill. He said if we book direct its better for him rather than thro booking.com which I said I tried but for some reason the date section would not work and I did email but no reply so was forced to use the Booking.com as agent. he also mentioned that in April 2025 they will have a full restaurant opens and we had already seen the building that will be used, it will be nice as if you sit outside yo can see St Cirq le Popie across the other side of the river hanging off the cliff, and amazing view.So we paid the bill and wandered back to the apartment for a brief afternoon rest.

In the evening we had a ham salad which was quite tasty but there was something here that effected us both???

For the evening television we watched the Amazon Prime three par t series on Prince (Randy Andy) Andrew and his relations with Jeffrey Epstein and some rather young ladies. Most interesting and no doubt his mum will look down with consternations.

And so to bed..
