AU REVOIR

"I've been obedient!!" Au revoir Zulu and Kenco.


The tally - 101 corks only one screw(top)


No flower can lift spirits quite like sunflowers can. Bright and cheery, bold yet comfortable, the sunflower is often associated with adoration and longevity.


And so we left our chateaux and enjoyed our final weekend with friends. We'd wanted to see Le Tour for years and were able to view it from outside Tarbes last Sunday. The circus before the cyclists appear, note the Pyrenees in the background.


The peloton. Blink
AU REVOIR

Winding up and winding down

We are winding things up as we prepare to leave in just over a week. We are winding down as the heat intensifies.
Too hot to take photos of old things(DH, Duras Chateaux, Agen theatre)




Too hot to read menus


Too hot for Toulouse sausage,

Even too hot to swim in the ancient piscine!!
The heat will have ripened the tomatoes in these hanging baskets.


At least the weekly night market with the butcher bbqing his meat is held when the sun is less severe.



Guess I'll just have to watch Wimbledon or as Sue Stewart says "get Lleytoned"
