28th June......

We sat in the bar are watched the Spain v Portugal match after having our supper. There was a BBQ but we did not fancy paying £13.00 a head for a meal… Had a bit of a set-to with the lady running the site as she thought we were going to attend and complained that we had cost her money as the food would be wasted!!!! Balls I thought – then she came back 20 minutes later and apologized for her misunderstanding…… Having sorted that they tried to get us to pay for the pitches twice….. ah well hey ho….

Thursday was a long day – we set off from the Camping Moto by 8am as usually…We were going to try to get as far north as we could as the more time on the road on Thur would mean less on Friday when we head for Ypres in Belgium…. We it was a long day and we road sum 400 miles or so …. Very tired we arrived at a municipal site in the town of Nogent-le-Rotrou….

We sorted out the tents and walked into town – dead dead dead – I though it must have been the Germans again…. But managed to find a small bar open – so we had a beer – Dave was feeling generous and so he paid for the round…. Bugger he thought 17 euros for two beers and a coke…. Good job we didn't have a second round…
