Retour chez nous


A few walking distance updates:

Saturday:  5.6km
Sunday: 8km (dog-walking)
Monday: 4.2km (more dog-walking)
Today: 4.0km

And back to France today on the overnight crossing to St. Malo, it was surprisingly full for a weekday crossing out of school holidays in February.

We treated the CR-V to it's 100,000 mile service back at Fleet Autoway, rewarded it with new brake fluid, new coolant and fuel filters and then, somehow, yet again it ended up loaded to the roof on the way back:



Main culprits were the 500l of potting compost (It's just ridiculously expensive in France and we use about 700L a year) and the Sky-Watcher telescope (only available from Germany and 20% more expensive that in the UK).

The good news though was that I did find room for three cases of Biere Anglaise including one of God's own beer, Timothy Taylor's Landlord.
