All credit to Alastair Sawday, a website for B&B's 'with character' where we found these two places, each run by English couples as it happens, who gave us warm welcomes. It's rather more interesting to dawdle through France than do a mad overnight dash to the south as we used to. Of course, it's also easier when there are only two people to pay for. Later life does have its advantages.
Flattered and honoured to have a phone call recently from a friend of old in Canada who reads all our family blogs regularly. So keep it up guys. It's not just us reading each others.
We're off to America in about five days time. I am listening to a Radio 4 broadcast each day on its history and trying to get through Alastair Cooke's 'America' at the same time. It's a bit like revising for an exam.
