Yes we love Walnuts TG I had some with my starter the other in Villefrance lettuce walnuts and rocamadour cheese with a dressing could eat that every day yum.
Is the site you are staying at La Fleche called that or does it have a different name just interested for next year, enjoy the rest of your trip back to the tunnel.
As to the AGM today it always seems that HQ do not like negative questions and not always explain themselves fully.

That sounds like a nice food combination RedKite, a friend has a walnut tree in the corner of her very small Devon garden but the squirrels always get there first!
Had a nice time yesterday visiting "Skeldale House" about twenty years after I first wanted to visit James Heriot's old home. Worth the wait.

How lovely brue. I have never been but it has been on my list for a long time so I think we will have to make our way up there next year. I expect there is increased interest at the moment with the Chanel remake of the series (with I think is very good by the way)

B2 &Millie. The latest series have been added to the exhibition. I really enjoyed seeing some of the original TV sets from Pebble Mill etc. The hands on experience is good fun too. OH and I took it in turns to visit but it was quiet so we could have a good look at things, including scripts and original work.

Must have just missed you around Thirsk Brue😁Skeldale Museum is a lovely visit, we went round a few years ago. So much to see, I loved the kitchen, OH loved the vehicles, and we all had fun playing upstairs in the interactive room (no kids around on our visit so we fully indulged😂) The display of archaic veterinary implements made the eyes water though😱 Thirsk is a really lovely market town, the church is well worth a visit👍
That five second few words from DG Lomas, fast check in system, booked pitches and deposits was just about the only information gleaned on future developments other than Sites. Some interesting stuff on how HQ and Sites weathered the early stages of pandemic. No doubt all will be revealed eventually.

Hi Redkite, its Camping Municipal de la Route d Or. If you have an Acsi book its number 1285. It's 14€ a night, good sanfacs, big pitches and great location for a walk into the town.
We've stopped here a few times now funny enough always on the same pitch.
At this time of the year its not busy at all but I suspect in the summer it could be. It will be closing soon for the season.
Your Walnut dish sounds nice.
Lovely sunny day here, it was very cold last night and this morning but the sun is warming it up nicely for our bike ride. Should be around 16/17c so we are now out of shorts and T-shirts more like jeans and fleeced

Thanks TG have made a note as we do not have Asci book but might for next year.
The walnut dish is local to here and the Averyon and possibly the Dordogne as well, very easy to do.
My summer clothes have been packed away bar a few left for warmer days, just had look at last year's calendar and found that we had 2 days over 20C so will be interesting to see what this November is like as it has been an odd year for weather another sharp frost today but sun now out but much cooler than yesterday alright in the sun but chilly in the shade, much better than cloud and rain.
