I know we shouldn't complain about the weather, we are living a life many would envy at the moment but we have severe cabin fever so you'll have to bear with us.
When you are in a motorhome and it rains the whole time you either stay put in your (very tiny) home or you get wet. It's noisy on the roof and it's annoying! In hindsight we should have stayed South in Portugal until June, but then we would have missed out on many of the sights we have seen in France but the weather is really getting us down - who knew the rain here would rival the UK downpours??
Rant over!
We haven't moved too far, we are pacing ourselves to arrive in Bergerac on Monday as we will book into a campsite for a couple of nights when we pick Charmaine up. This area is very different to other areas we have travelled through in France with huge areas of pine forests. The villages dotted about are quite small but with large properties and very few large shops or other commercial businesses. It must be quite isolated to live here although it is only about 100 km to Bergerac or Agen. It has a distinct 'Platteland' feel to it.
We managed a quick walk around Houeillès during a break in the weather. [The nice thing about the blog is I can type the place names and don't have to try and say them]
