2020, (4,) To the end of an unusual year.

So during our last weeks in the south of France, we spent some time in Aigues-Morte and then travelled back quietly though Frontignan again and over the E'tang de Thau towards Agde and onto Beziers.

of the town of Aigues-Morte at dusk.

Besides Lucy seeing an osteopath about her sore buttock (Sciatica) and a failed battery charger we set off back to Frontignan. 

 Its a quiet place normally but the fishing boats went out at odd hours and not slowly--- causing a bit at rocking at night.

and the very serious fishermen.

 Again we had to drop our canvas and windows to get under the low bridge at Villeneuve-les-beziers at the begining of the Canal du Midi.   

Luckily the weather was lovely and NOT raining.  

And the lovely sunsets. We spent a few weeks just lazing around when we got to Beziers. Cleaning and tidying the boat. 

Its very quiet, and only excitment was a tree falling over and the amazing group effort of the police and the council man clearing it up.!!!!!!

Had a lovely lunch out with Alan & Shelia to a fishing village, Port Leucate, about 30mins past Narbonne, where the fishermen all have little returants attached so they sell their own catches.

After losing the back end of our 2yr old winter tent in the high winds in Agde, we, after having a quote locally for a new back end of the winter tent made, we decided to buy a tarp for 19.99Euros. Lets hope it works!!!!  And Alan helping Max to biuld his new A-Frames. 

To end the year we find out that due to Brexit (and Covid hasn't helped), our favourite place to buy cheap wine, (after Lidl & Intermarche) is CLOSING😭😰😭😂. Calias Wine Superstore.

So a last quick visit on our way home. Not too much this year as Max is afraid that finally the shocks may give out after all these years of heavy loads!!!!!!! 

 

We are now back in Uk enjoying (😆😆) our two weeks quaratine. 

Its a bit sad when we have been having a lovely holiday doing our own thing on the boat, only mixing with one couple the whole of our 8 weeks away. 

Now staying inside the flat, only going out when necessary.

so, 

Back to reality of the real world.

😒😘

OOps sorry, by the time I have posted this Max will have been back spraying his Wet & Forget, and I have been back in London working for a week. 😊
