Dear Claudine framed up this photo of us both in a London pub in 2008 - remember many highlights of that trip- this morning was more sedate as we had coffee at the station bar and considered managing age.
Which we both do v well, BTW.
Weds evening, Peter Dunn, Bob and I ate at La Chapaire - as did many other people. Still good, still reliable. Worth noting!
Info: The strange fruit I asked your help to identify is called an Empress or Paulownia tree, native to east Asia/China (Michael and Barbara had an avenue of them near them their home close to Delhi)
And yet more info: The T de Fr goes across the top road, not through the village; so cushions and chairs to the fore if its not too hot. The roads will be closed, public transport deranged. If you're expecting to take a bus anywhere, check first.
Lovely warm and windy weather here, the more pleasurable as it's really not going to last. A huge heatwave awaits us. Seize the day!
