Not much to report

Just another sunny day, though it clouded up in the evening and even graced us with a spot or two of rain. Hayfever is knocking me about - very tiring.

Our only stop of note was at Liseaux where there was a massive basilica built in memory of St Theresa (of Liseaux not Calcutta) who is supposedly "the worlds most loved saint" but whom I'd never heard of. It's an art-deco style building, started in 1929 and finished about 10 years later, and is very grand.



Parking in a paddock, but it has a shower of sorts, and power. Unfortunately we're getting low on t'internet now so will be running close before it renews. So much for 'unlimited'.

Not much excitement, except when we went for a walk there were three cars at the end of the drive. As we got closer we saw that two were damaged, one with the side dented in, the other missing its front. The latter was hauled off on a transporter, while later the dented one drove into the camp. To me it looked as if this car had been turning into the camp while the other was overtaking it so they'd connected on an angle but not T-boned. Not a great day for either party.

Getting close to the D-day beaches...
