A great read Whirly.
Pity I didn't know about it - I really fancy a trip down the Loire - I could have met you on this side of the Manche, and it would have been great to fly in KF again, too, and I could have helped with the French as its become second nature now.
Don't think I could have swung it with the missus, though
(except for the horsey bit).
Keep it coming, its a good story
