And a few days at Ancien Resto
... over to spend the afternoon with Tiz and to get her advice on a big mail-out I was doing for Ancien Resto.
I thought I'd have a quiet Monday before returning to London on Tuesday, but at 10.00 there was a knock on the door and it was the man coming to deliver my load of firewood. I didn't remember ordering it, but then the mayor turned up and said he'd seen my car and realised I was in residence and had told the man to deliver..... ...
Fog then Sun
... to berth not far from Marnay..
Here we get the bikes off and ride through the two nearby villages, Givry sur Saone and Marnay. Marnay in particular was very pretty.

A late summer's day
... in the centre of town. We got there in time for the guided tour, don't get much from the guide as they don't usually speak English but it's the only way to get inside the rooms of these places and it just wouldn't be the same if we only saw them from the outside, as impressive as they are. All of the chateaux we have visited so far have been built in very different styles - this one had a huge moat around it, now empty. It ...
