Jude - The Mad Widow Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 Well I spent the evening in Paris, dinner at a brasserie with great wine food and company. I shall get the train home in a couple of hours. The weather here is disappointing and my coat is in my car! Here are a few pix just to show my parallel journey. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Jude - The Mad Widow Posted June 6, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted June 6, 2019 HOME!!! Hoping for Binky to follow soon then I need someone to rebuild my engine... 🙄 Thank you to the guys who were my companions on the Switzerland tour particularly Gary and Geoffrey who worked so hard and so long. The driving was awesome, I will always remember the hairpins and chasing Geoffrey round the bends! I had disturbing bouts of ptsd particularly when my car was taken. I had to leave Brian's body in Scotland and bizarrely it felt exactly the same. A quick trip back on the euro star and lunch at the pub... What an adventure, I'm already planning my next one.. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
