Not rain

Yesterday - as rain was forecast -  it seemed a good time to go to Carcassonne and do some essential shopping.
l took the one euro bus, changed for the train at Limoux.

Should have paid more attention to the signs... blue skies, no wind.

By the time I got to Carca had to divest myself of mac and jumper. Fortunately was also wearing a t shirt.

It got too hot to shop seriously so took the 2.00 bus back - I say 2.00 o'clock because that's what it said on the train station notice board. The timetable says 2.15 and the thing turned up at 2.19 - driven by a young woman who looked like the heaviest thing she'd ever controlled was a remote.

She got a little lost from time to time. No matter; she had a map.

She shouted at the traffic - 'what are you waiting for, a passport?'- and was generally worth the euro. :)


Some sweetheart has posted the timetable into Carca on the bus stop. It won't last long so here are copies...

Hope they are readable. Carcassonne canal is looking like it needs rain, never seen it so dry. 

 Back home to temperature of 26 degrees, to find the town hall being labelled. Ha!! Its a giant stencil for the parking space which surely has a single use. An artist could have been employed to do it once, by hand...though it might have lacked gravitas.

 Today has dawned grey and looks as if the rain will really come.
