Rest day at Saint Emilion

We stayed on site today counting the Neverlanders from the ACSI rally as they left the site. Its very quite now.

We walked around the lake, about a mile, then I decided to try fly fishing for course fish. The lake is only for campers and there was no one else fishing. I was very happy because I caught 2 small roach on a tiny fly.

Its been the best day for weather for about 2 weeks. Spoke to Brits heading back home from Spain. Apparently its been very windy on the Costa's for about a month now. Also spoke to a like minded German who retired early and enjoys his motorhome travels, minimum planning, minimum clothing and cooking local produce. However he has moved pitch at least. 4 times today trying to get his satellite system working! (needs a bigger dish IMHO). We talked about football, he knew about the premier league champions and was dead chuffed to meet people from 'Lestah'.

We are cooking  the skirt recommended by the lady in L'Eclerc and I am drinking 'girlie' pink wine.There seems to be a rose version of everything these days! We have some Asian campers next to us BBQing with chopsticks, thats wierd!

Bought a WiFi voucher to try and sort out my photo uploads and get Rosemary Sunday and Monday papers in one go.  We are planning to move on tomorrow towards La Rochelle but probably stay at an Aire en route.
