08h15 – Overcast 16°C, high for the last 2 days was 24°C low was 11°C.  Will be showing the campers to the baker’s and supermarket then off to the Educational Farm’s ‘Open Day’ – Les Grenouillettes, it’s a farm, a gite, a brewery ….

15h00 – Back from the open day with 6 bottles of Kate’s prizewinning beer.   It was an exchange for some British beers I took her.   We bought some chocolate from a local man who gave us some chocolate pearls and told us to try just a sprinkling in some champagne.   Not having any champagne we did try them in some Cremant de Bourgogne, the result was remarkable and really nice.  We’ll do it again.

18h00 – Mark Cavendish won the final stage of the Tour de France, I had my placard at the gate, WELL DONE CAV.

23h00 – Been hedgehog and glow-worm hunting with the Borroff’s.  Found 8 glow-worms, no hedgehogs and one really smelly dead mole.
