My lad starts College next week on a motor mechanics course, he's been informed that his services will be charged at 100% free. Not long from now guess what he'll be doing =))

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 :D
Bless ya tar! We're going to settle over there once we got rid of the mortgage. Few years off yet tho :(. The in-laws are coming with us so makes it much easier as we're pooling the money. Can't wait. :D

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.
Lovely. I'm sure you'll have a smashing time living the dream.

Can you speak French Grumpy?
A little. I am teaching myself when I get the chance, not had much time recently mind. Not good as my dad was a linguist and head of languages in his school for his entire career!! Retired now.

Those audio tapes are good,i got an Italian one some years ago and played it in the van on the way to jobs etc and learnt enough to get by whilst we were there.

The only problem with France, IMHO, is the people who live there.
Ever thought of something else?
How about this. Dutch/German boarder and they can speak English as well........ ;)

Lol! We like the French h/t. Nice place tho. We like quiet and we like countryside. Can't be doing with hussle and bussle. I teach myself of an app I've got. It's easy learning stuff so I can keep up!

Have a good Holliday Steve, you'll love driving it in France cos the roads are so much better, be careful on a right turn at T junctions with the hood up, I found that if the you had to aprouch at an angle you just couldn't see left but that's only at an angle and when your on your own with the hood up, with a passenger's help it not so bad, just an observation I like to pass on. Keep us informed how you get on, fingers crossed for your weather. Roy.
