Once again - farewell and safe journey

Once again Matthew has set off for the summer season in France. It is always a worry for us as parents that he faces such a long drive on his own, but this year, as he is working down on the Mediterranean coast rather than in the Ardeche region, the drive is longer than ever. At least he now has a car more suited to the job. First year he drove himself, he had to fit most of this stuff into a little Corsa, and at 6' 2" himself, that was a bit of a squeeze.   

Di made it out of bed yesterday evening and is up today. Still not 100% but much better and on the  mend thank goodness.
