GOOD NEWS.


The absconding duo have been claimed by their owner.
After sticking posters up in local bars, and even at a French Election polling station (The officer incharge of the election took great glee in sticking the dog picture next to an image of Sarkozy!)
We now have the phone number of the owner should these two run off again.
Shame really, as peace talks between Bella and the female boxer had just started to go well after 2 days of all out war.

THE WANDERERS RETURN



They first came down here and spent two nights at our house before their owner eventually turned up and claimed them.
Well, now they are back and the owner is nowhere to be seen.
The flyers have gone out around the various bazaars to trace the owner, but as yet no luck.
The sad thing is, we can't keep them and they will have to go to the dog pound soon, and in France they with put the dogs down if they are not claimed within 10 days!

BELLA'S BIRTHDAY




Bella's 4th birthday on Thursday and as usual the dogs tea was jazzed up a bit.
You know, Yorkshire pudding, Sirloin steak cooked rare.
The usual stuff our spoilt dogs get on birthdays.

RNA APRIL LUNCHEON


We attended the April lunch at Le Longueville Brasserie in Dinan.
27 attended but it has to be said that the main course was not to great and we came away disappointed.
A shame really, as we have been here many times and always had a fine meal.
Perhaps it was an ex navy chef on duty!

THE SCOOTER


The scooter has now clocked up 3000 kilometers since we got it.
Which beggars the question..Why did I not take the brakes off it?
The Missus would be just north of Istanbul now.
And if you don't believe me, go to Google maps and type in the route from St Potan to Istanbul.

NEVER MIND


Sadly it wasn't to be.
Pluzunet beat us 13-6 yesterday and to be honest, they thoroughly deserve their promotion to the Elite League.
They have beaten us twice this season, so no complaints.
We finish 3rd, which is still the highest St Potan has ever finished.
I hope they pay the prize money quick, because my bar bill from yesterday needs servicing.

MUM AND BOB VISIT.


Al's Mum and Bob have been out, staying nearby during the week.
Have had some smashing meals out in the village, Dol, and Pen Guen beach in St Cast.
Picture here is taken down at the port of St Cast. Just about warm enough to sit outside and have a glass of muscadet!
