Bet it starts 1st time though.

We used to have one of these, same colour too. It came with a towbar and that's how we got into caravanning....and the rest, they say, is history

Montgenevre en route from Italy to France. It was a little lonely though - 220 places and only ONE camper. Excellent route if you want to avoid the tunnels. Great views along the way. Ten euro a night! Nice to be back in France for a few days (looking at buying a house in the Auvergne) A pony needs a stable!

I think the saying 'you need to get out more' applies here Just imagine if we all got wiped out, I wonder how long it would take nature to cover all our sh*t up

It's that time of the year, preparing for winter, sweeping chimney and cleaning woodburner so Santa doesn't get mucky

Did you paint it?

Yes, it's part of a series, robin, pheasant, Guinea fowl and turkey.

We visited the lost Village nr Nerja Spain today .here are a few pics of it and the well known restaurant there
It is a very narrow and windy road worst than the alps and the last mile is only a dirt track..single lane a lot of the way with no pullover places eek.... But the place was full when we left
We had house salad, Wild Boar, John had Partridge and friends had Venison, followed by Blueberry ice cream n mango ice cream... yummm

..as I can't upload from my phone to here ( haven't found the problem yet) I took a photo of them with my ipad

Visited El Acebuchal a time or two, the road's quite easy when you're on horseback! - as long as your horse doesn't mind the snakes zipping across the track under their feet. Or the feral dogs jumping out of the undergrowth. Or the wild boar, goats, marching caterpillars etc... We tied the horses to the bumper on the back of some truck or other belonging to a local guy while we had drinks & tapas at the bar.
The village is one of those that suffered during the Spanish Civil War as the communists were really active in the area, then the last people were driven out and the houses wrecked in the 1950's. The owner of the bar bought the entire village and started restoring houses, and tried to find the descendants of the previous owners and when he did, gave them the restored house. He brought the entire village back to life. When we visited there was a great celebration as the first child had been born since the 'resurrection' of the village (even though the parents were, I think, Scots - but were residents). They were also just about to finish the restoration of the chapel.
Lovely place, lovely people. Nice memories, thank you.
(It's beginning to sound like I'm always going "been there, done that", but honestly, haven't been much of anywhere, it's just coincidence that people are writing/ photographing the few places we HAVE been!!!)

Decided to move today so meandered a little further along the Loire and ended up at

Briare where the canal goes over the Loire on Eiffel's bridge.

Larry we had no idea about it until two days ago, the folk that took us knew about it

Thank you for sharing, yes it felt like something would be there around the sharp narrow corners.. Glad we didn't know about the snakes ..did see the goats, and some horse folk ..brilliant experience
