Well not much to talk about today except our heated exchanges this morning at 6.30am, that's slack (my wife) & myself. My new Tom Tom wanted to go left at the end of the drive & I wanted to go right, more about that later. The boat journey from Ibiza to Barcelona that was supposed to take 4hrs took 5 hrs for some reason, we went club class, oooh, that meant a complimnentry meal!! Well I can honestly say without any exageration that the croisant was bigger than the little foil wrapped pat of butter, it was a butter sandwich. Very friendly & good service though. The poor dogs had been locked in the hold for this time & were a bit agitated, Lucy had wet her bed like a dirty protest I suppose.

We stopped for a light lunch of snitzel & chips, I did anyway, making the most of my free feeding days while I can & then had to shoot off as the dogs were tied up outside in the car park & we had started talking about dognapping & how it would ruin everything. We decided that as Blossom is a pedigree she is the one that would most likely get dognapped, we discussed it a little further & decided that that would be the best option as we don't really like her :) not really.

The Tom Tom guided us through Carcasonne town centre for some bizarre reason as we always carry on down the motorway, this added about an hr on the trip, we're glad it did because its a beautiful town & we will definately be going there for a holiday sometime.

Picked up some Poilly Fume as a thank you to my sister (we are staying with her in her little hotel in a hamlet called Burlats, nr Castre on the river La Gout, a subsidary of the River Tarn I think? Tel 0033 563 51 64 01 since you ask! Very favourable rates & family friendly, good cook too!

Well today is a national music day throughout France so we are going out to join in with the local carrot crunchers in the bar that is in the post office. So I bid you all good night & if I am near a wi fi tomorrow I'll update you all, I know most people are waiting for the pooey bit but you are just going to have to wait. Bon nuit.
