Off on hols!

Just knew my french was dire.....thanks Bags!

Bonnes vacances, mishap! x

Have a great holiday Mishap

Thanks Greatnan - the bedsocks are just to get my feet roasting so that I can kick them off later!

Have a super holiday Mishap, relax and enjoy it

Anno - you will have a Winter duvet and a patchwork quilt and the flat is completely carpeted - but bring your socks anyway!

I never go without bedsocks, Mishap. If I keep my feet warm, I can usually avoid having night cramps in my feet.

Perhaps I should pack some bedsocks!

It sounds as if you will be in Normandy or Brittany, Mishap, in which case I can report that the weather is still good, although a bit chillier in the early morning than it has been. Enjoy!

Mishap because you deserve it!

Have a lovely holiday, Mishap.

I had a hysterectomy when I was working in Brussels and sailed back to Dover with a private cabin about a week after the operation. It made all the difference and it is well worth the expense.
Why do we grudge ourselves a bit of luxury when we have worked all our lives?

Have a nice one Mishap.

Alison - it is Parkinson's Disease.

Many thanks for good wishes.

Greatnan - we are travelling on the overnight ferry to cut down on driving and will only have about 45 minutes of driving (unless we manage to get lost!) to get to our gite. We have booked a comfortable cabin (as OH has bad nights) - expensive, but we go abroad so seldom (and we neither smoke nor drink - in fact we have absolutely no vices!! - hmmm!) that we thought we should make it as easy as we could despite the cost.

Bon Vacances Mishap, hope you and OH have a delightful time.

Bon voyage - how far do you have to travel once you reach France?
It is very quiet here at the moment as we are between the walking and skiing seasons. I hope you have a lovely, relaxing holiday.

Have a good holiday Mishap I have no idea what PD is but it does sound like you are getting the support you need.

Hope you have a great holiday Mishap. When my son married here, his father-in-law, who has PD, stayed in a gite just down the lane from us. Apart from the stress of the wedding speech, he commented on feeling better generally, and put it down to a relaxing time in France.
