6 years agoYikes!
6 years agoWe really tried our best, but time was short and berries were many.
6 years agoTo tell the truth we were none too thrilled either.
6 years agoPretty spiffy huh?
6 years agoThe old soldier told the joke about the old man who said to his friend that he felt just like a newborn baby....he had no teeth, no hair and he thought he had wet himself. I countered with.... an old man was sitting on a park bench, crying. A young man came up to him and asked what was the matter. The old man replied-I just recently got married to a beautiful 26 year old woman.she cooks delicious meals for me, keeps my house spotlessly clean and we make passionate love every night. The young man asked what the problem was, since this did not sound so bad to him. I can't remember where I live, wailed the old man.
6 years agoThose look incredible. I wouldn’t have been able to leave until all the ripe ones were gone!
6 years agoI would have said mythological Phoenix no?
6 years agoDo. Not. Like.
6 years agoThat chimney is something!
6 years agoWhat? No recounting of the jokes here?
6 years agoYes, we like the bike storage room and the receptionist too. Also the desk, which is great for blogging. The room is actually bigger than some. Last night we found we had no room to put two of our four pannier bags down! Fortunately we were the only ones in residence and we put them in the hall!
As I wrote, I was surprised to find the downtown intact!
We have been trying to read your blog a bit to see what is coming. But now, though we could get on the London-Paris for a bit, it seems best to continue up the coast until turning at the Somme and heading for Amiens.
Like you two we stayed at the Egg hotel I had been a bit concerned about it but we found although basic it worked so well very cheap, a good sized basic room, close to the lovely downtown, good bike storage and a wonderful receptionist who gave us perfect directions to get on the London Paris cycle route. (much better than the TI did) Often we find when touring we want a hotel which is functional not cute or atmospheric where we can just get on with our own things
Keep safe

Purely coincidental, I assure you.
