Oh nice.  So the Motor Museum at Romoratin, think it houses one of Graham Hill's, the Garden Festival at Chaumont, Cheverny to meet up with Tin Tin, Montresor is worth a visit, Blere is good on market day, Chenonceau for Diane de Poitiers v Catherine De Medici and because it was one of Princess Diana's honeymoon locations (she went by helicopter from the Med I believe), Loches for lunch at the Priory, Vouvray for a bottle of sparkling white and Chambord to see American and Japanese people looking impressed at the Wedding Cake Chateau.   angel1

Frog plod turned up, concerned by the convoy of black cars and reports of heavies. Rainstorm sent heavies scuttling for cover. Big Man was full of smiling menace. Pouting teenager pouted expertly and said "Non". We stood firm  scared2: scared2:

Convoy left. They may be back. After Saturday, I hope. Plod followed them out of the village.

Utterly weird event  eeek: eeek: eeek: eeek:

Sounds like the right result. I'd guess dad will have another go at getting the son to drop the girlfriend.

Best one of those I had was after doing aid work in Romania when we decided to get souveniers and cut loose a little, they let us loose in the second largest city the day before we were due to head back and the exchange rates meant that everything was (from our perspective) incredibly cheap. The supermarket manager must have loved us, about twenty of us all 16 and raiding the booze section with £40-£50 each where a bottle of vodka cost the equivalent of 15p and a bottle of pink champange was 50p.

To be fair they are only able to keep the prices that low because they make the Booze out of antifreeze and aviation fuel. ;)
