Lesley Posted July 21, 2008 Share Posted July 21, 2008 Have decided to buy Hi-Vis vests to take to France The French police are not supposed to carry out on the spot fines until October but they are - and targetting Brits according to the AA. I have found them for £1.40 on this site in case anyone else feels they ought to buy one! http://www.securitydirect.co.uk/ They were £5.99 in Countrywide and I nearly bought them! - I'm glad I decided to check.........

Karen & co. Posted August 3, 2008 Author Share Posted August 3, 2008 Were off tommorrow morning too.Not with Karen and co though!! Sarah would have been pleased hope you had a good time! France was lovely, I'm already getting the post holiday blues and looking for somewhere to go for next year We stayed near to Ile D'Oleron slightly inland and it was beautiful The last 2 nights were near to St. Malo on a much bigger site, but still nice. Lesley did you see us waving as we drove past on the M40? Poet you really ought to take the camper over you would love it. It turns out that I didn't forget to pack andything important, we have a different van this year and it has more cupboards, and the last one had all the bits and bobs in that we leave in the caravan between holidays, some of them since we got the van when Sarah was just over a year old, and she's now 10 so I had a clear out, and found some more space!?! Hey ho! back to a mountain of washing, and a large number of eggs The girls have been well looked after by my father and then our next door neighbour, so it's lots of baking tomorrow I think it will take the next week to catch up on here Karen x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've not managed to read them all but made a good stab at it . Any photos? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
