    I've only ever been to France once, and that was one time to many.

    If I go to Normandy I’m visiting the landing beaches. It’s on my bucket list.

    That would be the only thing I'd ever go to France again for. I'd like to see that

    The rest they can keep

    I can have all those without actually being surrounded by French people.

    There's not much else in Normandy tbh.

    I found my uncle's grave in a small war cemetery in Normandy. The war cemeteries are very moving. The French keep them in immaculate condition!

    Very romantic that though, taking the Mrs to WW2 landing beaches :emoticon-0115-inlov

    Better that than Brtis mate.

    I'm in France right now, looking at a village pond with geese on it having spent the night 'wild' camping in a rural French car park. Will be in Biarritz in an hour though, happy days.

    Got a puncture in this behemoth yesterday, what fun that was changing the wheel. The scenes, proper workout!

    Three French window cleaners watched, which was nice.

    Booked the anniversary long weekend in Normandy.

    Taking the jag. Can’t wait. Bring on the cheese and wine.

    And tears no doubt when I visit the landing beaches.

    Settled in Biarritz now, love this place.

    Unbelievably chilled with a gate to a ridiculous beach with pounding surf, Pyrenees in the distance.

    Got 4 German, 3 Dutch, 1 Swiss and just us Brits in our 'row'. Which is just how I prefer it.

    Cold Pelforth in hand, tally to!

    Playing Gonzo's summer playlist on Spotify.

    Doubt these central Europeans will know any of it!

    There's all sorts though, it's sort of designed to fool Mrs luv into thinking she likes it, just when she's getting a bit pissed off with it something she likes will come on. :biggrin:

    Oh, I know.

    Loads of great stuff. Nor sure where to actually start. Should start at the start then follow through to the death!

    Got First Aid Kit on at the minute but am putting yours back on after My Silver Lining, which is next.
