Our second night in France was spent on the outskirts of Rouen in a motel. We decided to go for a meal at the Buffalo Resturant, enroute there we passed a crowd demonstrating in the middle of a roundabout [ they were there last September when we drove this way ] I asked our waiter what they were demonstrating for as there were no signs or placards, he just shrugged his shoulders and said they were demonstrating for more or less everything !!!!
We arrived at the Eurotunnel for our journey through the tunnel at 9am, 2 hours before our due time and were pleased to be offered a crossing at 10.20am [an hour earlier than booked ]. Then the long wait, it was the end of half term and the place was heaving with traffic, plus we were called to go through their new car X-ray machine which held us up even longer. Needless to say we did not make it to the 10.20 crossing but managed the 10.35am. Must remember to not travel on the end of holiday dates.
3480 miles in total averaging 49.5 mpg in my Volkswagen Golf.
We have not stopped since getting home. Chris pasted and I wallpapered our bedroom, he is now painting the wallpaper. The new carpet arrives on Monday and the new furniture on Tuesday. Upstairs looks like a tip, it is hard to find anything. It will be so nice when it is completed.
I think this brings us up to date on our merry go round of a life!
