    Morning Joan how are you today? Hope you are doing ok it's extremely hot here, but the aircon is fabulous - noisy but fabulous. Take care ((())) xxx

    Morning Skinny Keef I'm so glad your head was actually clear yesterday hope it still is today. How right are you about european roads they are phenomenal I did take some photos will try to post if I can.

    Mind you we had a 2 hour 40 minute delay due to the eurotunnel still we are here safe and sound on our first stop.

    Did you get to the meet yesterday? ((())) xxx

    Hi Jojo how are you today? I see you were also struggling yesterday not good but luckily it was your day off so you got some rest. As much rest as a busy Mam ever really gets! I am doing ok although as soon as I'd eaten I did have to go to bed and lie down my legs were aching aching. I',m pretty good today all meds taken apart from the blood thinners I need to eat first for them. Take care ((()))

    Morning Stuart and how are you? Did you get outside at all once the window cleaner had been? You are up to two braces now? Have you braved making a private appt yet to see a rheumatologist? I don't think you ought to delay if you can afford it. Without medication like your Mum takes your joints could be being damaged. Take care ((())) xxx

    Morning Reshmi How are you all? It feels like Sunday here because we travelled on a Wednesday! Weird. So i wanted to ask whether you were seeing EF!

    How is your sister doing? BIL really must watch his walking in those heels with his big tummy he might falland hurt himself too!

    Oh yes it's hot here! Thank the aircon Oracle for blessing us with a very powerful unit. I even made it tooo cold and had to put my dressing gown on!!!!!

    The restaurant sorted me out with a vegan burger!!! Get that! We've stayed on this site before it's lovely but off on our travels again this morning.

    I will try to post some photos from my phone

    Take care ((())) xxx

    Morning Toady hope you are doing ok?

    Elfie is the happiest Elf here in the motorhome in France. He is in touch with Sleek so knows she is ok. A fair bit of singing but he was nervous on the tunnel because there was a secondary school party and the 'big boys' scared him!

    While we were in the restaurant (right next to the pitch) he cooked himself egg and chips (vegan???) place was spotless after a quick walk. In bed for 9, 8 UK I think. He just shot off with his towel under his arm for a shower.

    Slept like a log. no sign of fitbit so using 'old' fitbit for now.

    Sleek is very supportive isn't she and kind. Hope your jab went smoothly and the neighbours shut up today. Bey she enjoyed unpacking the catazon order.

    I feel very grateful to have food yes! Trivialities like vegan marge (the nicest) and mayo can really make me happy. Tomorrow there is no restaurant i think so will be cooking on the cadac outside lovely😊 Leaving here by 11 Paul fast asleep. Take care Toady will post pics soon. ((())) xxx

    How goes it?

    Sorry I never made it back to the cafe last night

    It was the impact of having to ablute in the evening etc

    Yes makeup is a good treat 👍

    It’s better than throwing a tantrum at least lol

    Yes only bill can pull of that shoe - related look haha

    Ookey night there with the heat 🤢

    Bye for now toady tc xx

    Ps gift for you, just in case the phantom neighbours decide to re - train 😂xx

    good morning Toni

    Ca va?

    How are you?

    Ookey night here, I’m glad you’ve got the powerful aircon unit

    Mums ok 👍

    It wasn’t all that hot on the way to group

    But suddenly it got very nastily hot and I was sweating non - stop

    LA is doing very well with his French pronunciation what a good boy, but the mafia members may not approve of his branching out and not sticking with his “native” Italian lol

    The campsite looks very nice

    Vegan burger sounds great

    RR said he’s saving money buy just buying five items a day from the local shop- but apparently it doesn’t matter about the cost of individual items, so if he buys five cut diamonds he may be spending as little as £5 million pounds haha

    Well at least he’s perfected his maths skills and he used vouchers and saved the odd centime lol

    Ok bye for now Toni and tc xx

    Ps a female bill enjoying a relaxing Bath lol xx

    Hi all 👋 hot, tired, post my usual meds jab yesterday, too much to do and still crocked, not the best combination 😬 can only keep resting up & tea round the clock.

    Super to see you posting & to see where you are frog, and where you've been, on the shiny train (reversing, ooer). I would have been scared of the big boys too Elfie 😁 he seems to have everything under control though, sorting himself out for catering and leaving everything neat as a pin, well I suppose he is a seasoned traveller 😊. Don't suppose you had time to partake of any activities and perhaps as well for Elfie not to get wind that there might be karaoke..? 🤔😱😂.That heat does sound a bit much glad you have the aircon and are managing. Sleek and I are just resting and fanning ourselves occasionally between cups of darjeeling and shortbread fingers 👍️. Have hastily thrown my nosegay parcel together, well not being slapdash of course just getting on with it early so it's all done. Take care and see you at next port of call 😘 xx

    Hello Joan that's a good system for watering 👍️ certainly needs it now things are really suffering it's just a lot to expect of them, I've moved a few things into shadier bits. Hope the switchover goes well with your frozen stuff I expect you've tried to run things down a bit so there is not too much, but you can't always, you weren't expecting this so couldn't plan ahead. Hope they are good delivery people too 👍️😘 xx

    Hi bosh glad you made it to group even if it suddenly went a bit superheated on you 🌞🔥 it really is a bit much now. 23 or 24 degrees for me please, above that all you get is uncomfortable nights as you say and it's a waste of a sunny day which could just be a happy medium, but no it goes mad doesn't it. I was half-heartedly considering going out on Sunday but it looks like rain now so that will sort of excuse me 😉. Nifty application of economics there Bil, well it won't be 5 things at £1 anyway as 'that' shop is closing down apparently. Did you ever shop at 'everything 5 not-ounces', I only did once, that's another place that has gone or at least changed into some very weird reseller marketplace type thing, lots of disappointed loyal customers 🤷‍♀️. Hope your day is going ok and your mum is alright today 🤞 xx p.s. thankyou for the sparkly stakes 😄 no toad should be without one.

    Ooh well done Keef glad you made it to the meet, sorry it clashed with mtx day, these things do if they can, I find 🙄. Was it something where you know people? Hope you feel better asap 👍️ xx

    Hurrah for a good night's sleep Jojo especially in the heat 😊 well done doing the other stuff you've been doing, hope the rest of your day is good too :) xx

    Wave to Stuart 👋 another short night, hope you are making up for it a bit with some rest. How are your toms coping in the heat 😬🍅 xx
