After breakfast we loaded up Terry&#8217;s van with some bits and pieces, including the plastic boxes that I had brought with me, and then hit the road.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m not sure if I&#8217;ve mentioned this, but when I was at my house a few weeks ago I noticed that my tractor had been moved. And subsequently I had a message from Desir\u00e9e and Simon to say that it had been further moved.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s an expensive piece of kit, as regular readers of this rubbish might recall, so it needed to be rescued. There&#8217;s a little bit of room on Terry and Liz&#8217;s car park and so we had agreed that it should go there out of the way and Terry can use it if he needs to.<\/p>\n<p>And with Terry suddenly having a very rare free day from work on Monday, we went off to fetch it.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.lesguis.com\/images\/1808\/1808053.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" src=\"http:\/\/www.lesguis.com\/images\/1808\/1808053.jpg\" alt=\"terry messenger les guis virlet france\" width=\"300\" height=\"204\"\/><\/a>Regular readers of this rubbish will recall that when I was there just now, I couldn&#8217;t get to the house because of all of the weeds.<\/p>\n<p>But Terry had brought his heavy-duty brushcutter and it made pretty short work of the undergrowth. It didn&#8217;t take him long to cut a path through to the house and the barn. <\/p>\n<p>And then I could enter the house, rescue the keys and then load up the tractor into Terry&#8217;s van. Terry had worked out the dimensions and there was plenty of room in his van for it to fit.<br clear=\"both\"> <\/p>\n<p>I have new neighbours too, Lisette and Berry, as Lieneke and Guus have sold their house. I went round to introduce myself and have a chat, and then we went off.<\/p>\n<p>Ingrid had been to Clermont-Ferrand and we had arranged to meet up at the campsite at Les Ancizes. That serves snacks and is guaranteed to be open on a Sunday evening in the summer, so we had a meal there. Much to my surprise, they had a vegan dish on offer, Thai rice with mixed vegetables.<\/p>\n<p>Back at Ingrid&#8217;s, we all had a good chat and I had a shower, managing to walk on a thorn that was stuck to my trousers. And that didn&#8217;t half hurt.<\/p>\n<p>So here I am now, tucked up in bed. I&#8217;m going to have a really emotional day tomorrow so I need to be on top form.<\/p>\n<div class='watch-action'><div class='watch-position align-left'><div class='action-like'><a class='lbg-style1 like-10988 jlk' href='javascript:void(0)' data-task='like' data-post_id='10988' data-nonce='4f76f79927' rel='nofollow'><img class='wti-pixel' src='https:\/\/lesguis.com\/wp\/wp-content\/plugins\/wti-like-post\/images\/pixel.gif' title='Like' \/><span class='lc-10988 lc'>0<\/span><\/a><\/div><div class='action-unlike'><a class='unlbg-style1 unlike-10988 jlk' href='javascript:void(0)' data-task='unlike' data-post_id='10988' data-nonce='4f76f79927' rel='nofollow'><img class='wti-pixel' src='https:\/\/lesguis.com\/wp\/wp-content\/plugins\/wti-like-post\/images\/pixel.gif' title='Unlike' \/><span class='unlc-10988 unlc'>0<\/span><\/a><\/div> <\/div> <div class='status-10988 status align-left'><\/div><\/div><div class='wti-clear'><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8230; been tucked up nicely in a spare bed at Liz and Terry&#8217;s, tonight I&#8217;m tucked up nicely in a spare bed at Ingrid&#8217;s in Biollet, just 15 miles away from my place at Virlet.
