Woke up to a crisp morning, got away about 9am. Fortunately Paul is feeling much better this morning. We had a good couple of days at the Plein Sud campsite, only 2 negatives, the WiFi / 3G was rubbish and the toilet/shower block was a bit smelly. But for 14e we had a lovely big …

Had to do some housekeeping this morning, sweep the van and wash a few shirts. Various people were leaving the site, families driving off with cars packed to the gunnels. It was looking very empty. Once we’d finished our ‘jobs’ we had a choice of turning left at the cycle path and going back into …

The bread van came about 9am, tooting his horn to let everyone know he was coming, we bought a baguette and pain au raisin, very nice too they were. Then we had a visit from a woman driving around the site, she told Paul that we had to move as the policeman was on his …

Good drive up to Portsmouth. I’d planned for us to have fish and chips at Portsmouth overlooking the water but Paul said he would prefer a sandwich so we ended up with a Tesco sandwich eaten in the Tesco car park, not quite the same. Ferry was very quiet, only 6 artics and a dozen …
