Lazy start today didn't wake up until after 9, brain still on uk time so only 8 really. Then spent a couple of hours watching F1 that I had recorded.

After leaving a freezing 12° at Mailleray at midday now 6 pm sitting outside in shorts & sandles at Theillay 21° . Free Aire with free servicing.
We are just north of Vierzon where the free part of the A20 starts, don't like the N10.

Italians are good as well, D Day 70th anniversary week we were in the carpark at Caen museum surrounded by Italians. They were having a cheese & wine get together. We went to leave to find a quieter spot for the night made us turn off our engine and join them. After the cheese and wine there was an English couple in a Hymer who fed us, still don't know who they were but a great evening .
Always seem to have more fun being a FTL people on sites always appear stuffy and don't want to talk to you.

Ha ha, I feel your pain.
If that happens to me now I just move as far away from them as possible.
Otherwise they will be right outside your van crack o sparrows tomorrow having their morning chit chat with all the other frogs on site.

I often choose to avoid contact with others irrespective of being on a campsite or FLT
We enjoy our own company
Nothing stuffy about that

Just like being antisocial

Now down at La Sauvetat-du-Dropt beautiful old village with a small Aire down by the river. We stopped here at on the way home in April, only 4 places on the Aire and like last time we made it 5.
MiFi with roof top aerial proving it's worth tonight, slowish H on the phone full 4G on the mifi.

See you are getting your own back from last night elbowing your way in. Looks like you might struggle to get your awning and table and chairs out.
