Off to see the inlaws

[Bozzy]

BUT on the bright side they live in Brittany,France And we'r going in the Zed
The car is polished and show room shiny inside and out (i'm knackered now !)
Don't know how long it will stay clean though....it's forecast rain for tomorrow
We'r going from Plymouth on the 8a.m ferry tomorrow so it's an early start and a 5 hour drive to get there,but luckily the zed has cruise control,great on motor ways and it's the first car i've had with this on it.
6 hour crossing to Roscoff but then only an hour and a half to the outlaws....i mean inlaws...Sara's looking .
Some great quiet roads over there to enjoy and it's the first time we'll have been abroad with the zed,can't wait .
We'r going southwards to the Loire Valley area on Thursday for 4 nights,there's some Roman gladiator reinactment thing going on,looks quite good from what we've seen and Sara has a soft spot for muscly men in skirts ....and kilts...and no i don't indulge her at the weekends !...I don't have the legs for it .

Are you going to the "pay du fu"? That's a theme park full of fighting type doods, we didn't go although we were very close in July but it's supposed to be superb. I'm soooooo jealous, we adore France and love the Vendee/Loire region. Enjoy yourselves and it'll be all the better for being in the Zed.

Yes i think that's the one @Grumpy as it is at a theme park,as you say it's meant to be quite good.
We like France as well mate,don't know why some folks do it down
We were jealous when you and Jue were over there earlier this year
I'l have see how many dinaree a toga costs....might bring you one back...if you promise to wear it at the next cruise

Lol! Your OK mate, save your money for the pay du fu! It's a small mortgage to get in. My brother went last year with the kids and reckoned it was fantastic. I'd be back there tomorrow if pennies allowed it.

Thanks folks,hoping for some relaxation time,been flat out lately
Looking forward to decent tarmac and taking in the scenery....and the odd burst of speed

 

[Grumps]

Where abouts are you staying?

Yes i know what you mean mate...if we won the lottery i think France is where we'd settle.
If it was a mega win i'd help you out with a place over there

Staying with the in-laws there place is lovely and there's a little gite there for visitors,till Thursday then off with them to the lodge which is on a camp site near the Pay Du Fu,apparently you can get a train from there to the event,just a short ride away.

Nice and shiny mate but black arm band today as she has a seized front right caliper. Not a drama to fix but spoilt my drive out in the sun
