Foteyvroud abbey
Gday Bob, Grandma's ( Isabella de Angeloume)not buried with her husband , the fella beside her is her brother in law (King Richard 1st) She was married to his brother King John who's buried in England, (he was the chap that was forced into signing the Magna Carta , Isabella married Hugh de Lusignan after King John died and had nine more children, the second born was William de Valence, That's my ancestor, The reason poor old King Richard is there is because he copped an arrow in the arm in battle and because there were no antibiotics in those days he passed away over there, Cheers terry

I thought you had been detained with the immigrants...
so am pleased to hear that this was not so, and that you successfully avoided them on your way back to France. I'm looking forward to reading about you next adventure!

Yes
Do it, always do it if you get the chance.

Paddling
I paddled at Bude yesterday after a beach picnic with a friend. Lovely day and we walked up the headland afterwards my favourite short walk. You just missed Melissa and co. They're in Paris. Love xx

P.C.
Thank you for it. How is it produced? So impressive. You will return to this sceptered isle just in time for the heat wave (peut-être?) xx

correction
pouring wine sh. read "pouring rain". Wet here today, better forecast tomorrow which is their last day before early morning trip to Exeter airport on Wednesday for onward journey to Disneyland, then Paris where Rob will meet them for a couple of days and onwards by train to Luxembourg for a week. As for me, left bereft in cool Cornwall. xxx

and further
We are having good weather, lots of sun though not hot. When the children were in their teens we had a holiday in Douarnenez with Mostyn family and all the places you are visiting are (dimly) familiar to me. Melissa and I remember very wet weather and wearing 2 cagoules at once while sitting outside one evening with other happy campers playing pass the parcel while drinking much free red wine in pouring wine. Such fun ( it really was actually )
