all packed and bored!

having said goodbye to friends who had been in the gite we rounded up the remaining cat, ginge, who always disgraces himself in the car despite us leaving him til the last minute. marmalade was already crying in the bedroom where i had imprisoned him. as soon as they see the cat boxes they tend to do a runner!
the trip to the 'pension' needed one stop for a clean up but they were soon exploring their home for the next nine days alongside a very large cat called olivier and a silky tortoiseshell called isobel. we came home by a new route and now know to avoid floirac if in a hurry despite the prettiness of the village.
back home there were figs to be picked and frozen, fridges to be cleaned (yuk!), plants to be moved to where they can catch the rain (wet here please but not in tuscany!) and then the bags to be packed. tonight friends have asked us to dinner so no cooking, result!
bonne route pour demain! :)
