3rd September 2023

Morning was bright & promising. Showered & breakfasted by 8.00. Rosemary went to a car boot sale with Linda and purchased another two flat irons. She uses them as book ends.  We set off to Jen and Bev before midday, stopping off to purchase some wine before the supermarkets closed at 12.30, and arrived at Puymoroux in the afternoon. The van was parked in the drive and connected to the electricity.  (Not strictly required, the battery should keep the fridge running for at least 4 days, but good to have.) We sat in the garden under the shade of a tree and chatted, while playing with the dogs.  Supper was an excellent BBQ cooked by the man of the house, with numerous vegetable sides prepared by Jen.
