The beach is pretty amazing too. The best ‘urban beach in the world’ and just a wee walk from the centre.

It’s also quite sad.

There’s some fairly poor people trying to make a bit of money from the tourists. They do this by walking up and down the beach. On sand. All day. In 35 degree heat.

The only rest they seemed to have was when the comically disorganised Spanish police tried to round them up (unsuccessful and humorous).

I felt bad for them. Although maybe it beats sitting in Leicester Square in the pissing rain.

These are some of the things they sell (we purchased three of them):

1. Braids for your hair

2. Terrible Calvin Harris-style sunglasses (with a winning smile)

3. Coconut (the water keeps it fresh)

4. Henna tattoos

5. A massage

6. Beer

7. More beer (he didn’t like me)

Dels, Micachu, Anais Mitchell, the hog roast, Moats and Thrones and The Invisible. Brilliant.

It rained a lot but was AMAZING chat.

Guess who’s not impressed at the ferry queue?

Blimey. Isn’t that the guy from Apprentice Series 3?

Sam’s new trouser look, Nantes. Jeez.

I reckon he’ll ask me to take this one down.

Some bar, Nantes.

Telling a terrible joke with the punchline, ‘yes, oui, si, ja’.

Found a hat (french), Nantes.

30th birthday song!

Tezza and Clement, Comblessac.

Macca, the man, the face, the legend, the weird shaped head:

We did a lot of this:

Did some war stuff on the way home.

Utah beach, Normandy. Watching Band of Brothers now. It’s pretty boring.

Although the dog was lovely, the owner just told us four racist jokes.
