We very nearly didn't make lunch...just driving along, noticed all these cars and camper vans parked up and getting out picnics...stopped to ask an official looking man when they would be closing the road for the race...he looked at his watch and said (rough translation) 'any minute..I'm waiting for the call.' It was very James Bond. And so it did pass by us (the Tour de France) but we were about 3 miles down the road eating a huge meal in a converted farm surrounded by dogs, cats, pigs, chickens, ponies and...emus. They get everywhere those emus.<br />xRachel Foxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11803852725693518924noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1564859019305736550.post-9557979581975196842009-07-21T09:30:09.963+01:002009-07-21T09:30:09.963+01:00Nope, I didn't get it.

Cycling - racing and touring - was my first love. (I wonder why I've never blogged about that.) You do seem to have had a great time, though. Nice to have you back.

I liked bits of the story but particularly towards the end I think it just got silly.
