GOING ON BLOG HOLIDAY
Well, today's the day. The bikes are lined up ready to go on top of the car - that's the super duper hybrid bike
Mont Ventoux. The head turning tandem
And I definitely DO NOT WANT TO GO UP very steep, mountainous, Tour De France routes thankyou. Give me the river valley, canal path route any day!
I will, however, be following hubby up the mountain in the car, attempting to throw bananas, carbohydrate bars and drinks and bottles of Vittel at ever opportunity. I will have to be careful not to throw too hard in case he falls off and down a precipice!
At the moment, we have no idea what the weather is going to be like at the top of the mountain. Bedouin, which is where we will be staying (or base camp if you like)
Back on the 19th (Tuesday) with video footage! Bet ya can't wait!
That villa looks rather nice doesn't it? Wonder if it's as nice as it says on the tin? We've probably got the old unrenovated 'pente' at the back! The pool isn't heated but I bet we'll go in anyway (at least once!)

UPDATE UPDATE - NEW HOUSE ON THE MARKET! GOING TO SEE IT LATER!
HAPPY EASTER!

hahahahhaaha
happy holiday
Have a really great holiday. I love the image of you throwing the bananas! I also hope we see you on the Web-cam - ha ha ha!
Hope the house-hunting goes well. That one looks nice.
And don't get a sore arse on that bike. You need to sit down to do your blog when you get back!
Ooooh, that house looks interesting - will you give us an update before you set off on your trip? I think it would only be fair - rather than leaving us in suspense......
~(:o})=
Hi Sweetie
Thanks for your comment and update about the house - how frustrating :o{
How many shadow pics have I got? Well .. erm .. that'll be the one, actually - so I guess it has to be my favourite, hee hee.
Hope you have a really FAB blog holiday. You'll be sorely missed - see if you can check in from an internet cafe somewhere!
Byeeee! xxxx
~(:o})=
Very funny indeed. Loved the bunnies.
Have a wonderful holiday. Aren't bananas a bit like boomerangs though!!?
Good luck to Andy. I was impressed with the bikes. We have an original Clockwork Orange bike here - tell him that and he'll go all misty eyed I'm sure.
have a wonderful holiday, relax have fun and be careful with the bananas!
Wow haven't seen a tandem in years. My mum and her boyfriend had one and my sister and I used to die with embarrassment every time we went out on our bikes. We couldn't understand why they had to have this funny old bike, why couldn't they just be normal like other parents?!!! It didn't help that people used to shout from car windows 'can you ride tandem' as per the pg tips tea chimps advert that was on at the time :-/
hehe! Funny bunny thing!
Happy Easter to you too!

:o)
haha Dons .... happy days!

Welcome back Luce! or, alternatively, should you be in some cyber-cafe in french france, bonne vacance? hope you are having/had a great time - and did/will come back all intact especially Andy.
Picture the scene:
We're halfway up a mountain,
My bum is getting sore,
There's fifteen miles still to go,
And then we'll bike some more.
I'm way behind that Andy,
He's doing the Tour De France,
He's whizzing away like a Twister,
In the ultimate sporty stance.
The kids are slowly creeping,
The wind is in their hair,
It's beautiful to be away,
In the sublime, delicious air.
Good job there's no cobbles,
Thank God for pit-stops and wine,
When will we stop for breath?
Isn't it time to stop and dine?
The tandem is wibbly wobbly,
I think I might fall off,
I'm just not up to cycling,
I'm just no Lara Crofts.
I miss my blog, my friends await,
I just can't get by without,
Is there an Internet Cafe here?
If there's not, I'll pout!
Where is that web-cam for piccies?
I'm dying to wave from here,
It'll be slow motion pics,
As I'm changing gear.
The sun, the house, the laughing times,
The holiday here is great,
I'll soon be back to blog again,
And talk to all me mates.
To RW - we miss you!
Betty, that is such a lovely little poem :o}
Tum tee tum tee tum....what is the equivalent of drumming your fingernails waiting in blogdom?
Tippety tap...tippety tap....tippety tap....
La la la la la,
Tra la la la,
Sing a little song,
Can you hear it?
lol. Silly me, not checking RW's blog quite so frequently as she is away. Should have known you'd all be nattering away in her absence.
Great poem Betty.
So, anyway, RW. While you were away I don't suppose you heard that Chantelle and Preston are going to get married? hahahaha
~(:o})=
Please come home. It's not funny anymore.
Oh for god's sake aren't you home yet?!!
Welcome back.
Verification word is rpsunsik which just about sums up that photo on Wendy's blog. Have you seen it? Revolting.
You and me, we've got to take the slut test. Everyone else has. And there are funny quizzes everywhere too. You and me are so out of it.
Hey, you're back! Great fanfare sounding trumpets across blogdom! Hurrah for your return, and Le Chat's!
oh my god chatelle and preston are getting married?? welcome home RW, hope you're not too mad and deranged???? missed you :-) but then again I always do
So how were your hols? Did your man make it up his mountain? Is your bot a bit sore? From cycling, I mean!?
The weather here is so foul I feel like hopping back on a plane. At least it doesn't rain as much in Germany.
