"Took me 10 minutes to set this up and had to straighten the supporting lighthouse by 5 degrees afterwards !" Are you calling Bob fat?!?!

Thanks for explanatory answering emails Joy,(several!) and for all blogging. Weather has bucked up a bit here and the sun shines sometimes; very much an autumnal feel to it now. Anyway Matthew and I managed a good circular coastal walk yesterday which, though marked moderate, tested me(mightily) on the long hauls uphill. Am trying to get back to whatever condition I was in before the months of back problems struck, may take some time Friends from Holmes hapel calling in this morning en route to Falmouth and I've booked lunch at a favourite place of mine which is just a little detour off their route. Making a few biscuits and running little Dyson round next. Lots love R & B

Sorry if these sometimes have spurious characters on the end. I can't see they are there until after I have published and hate editing / republishing as it resends my emails.

Apologies for spelling mistake of Sejourn and thanks big sister. I normally check but missed that one. It will have to stay in place as it gets really tricky editing after I have published !

I did write the first part of the blog, the bit about what we did before we left home, before we left when I was setting the laptop up with all the files we need. So I cheated a bit there !

I have made several attempts to correct text / photo labels but they just don't seem to appear in this published version. So if you spot a spelling or grammatical mistake, sorry but I have probably corrected it but you can't see my correction !

Short message from NEW LAPTOP.
This area is where Melissa worked several ( about 20 ) years ago in an hotel at Castelnau and Baz and I took the caravan via (meaning up and over) the Massive Centrale (sp?). Just loved it. All 3 off now to Buckfast Abbey. xxx

Yes this was a wonderful place and the market is oh so good. Can you remember we visited with you. Very envious would love to go back there. Still Canterbury calls this week - really looking forward to our week in a Motorhome.

Should say "A rathenrr fine campsite shot of Tandy from across the river Orme" - but my laptop is behaving badly and keeps mistyping things ! A bad workman and all that.

Thx Joy
You lucky things being there en France! Lovely day at last. Melissa sent info email about the children's school. They started on Tuesday and have been waiting expectantly to hear but she just got online Friday, when they got landline sorted out. . Am rather impressed & think will send you the school info. It is a file (? ) so I don't think it crams up yr inbox. Tell me...Love R xxx

Calais Dover
We always use this route. We have priced up fuel and overnight stops compared with longer and more expensive ferry crossings and find that as long as we book low rate ferries it always works out cheapest. The extra driving is part of our holiday and we are quite happy to visit Normandy / Brittany en route for places further south. Joy

very good analysis - nice trip
very good analysis report on expenses u incurred for a tour. Travelling to Dover by ferries is a great experience. Once I travelled to Dover by booking cross channel ferries online. If you can make a note on some other routes it might be helpful to us.

Thanks The flowers were lovely, one of the best reasons for visiting the Alps at this time of year rather than into September, our other option. It's not raining at the moment just a bit disappointing not to have normalSouth of France lovely blue sky weather. Off to sit in the sun while it's out. xx

Dover Dunkerque
Hi We did use this route when Norfolk Lines first opened to passenger traffic but as they became more popular they also increased their prices. We prefer the route via Calais which is also good for overnight stop which we didn't find at Dunkerque. Thanks for your comments. Joy
