Shame Dan. I am so sorry that you have to go through this.Very little
Very sick and in a lot of pain.
The 12th
Sounds heavenly!Baked camembert with a rooibos and cinnamon sauce and walnuts for a starter. Then poached salmon in butter with pickled avo. And then creme bruele with a basil sorbet.

It was. Do you have a program called "Masterchef ......(insert your country name here" over there. So to give a compared it was like eating their meals.Sounds heavenly!![]()
Daughter is unwell. I'm sure all that swimming and ice cream when it's barely 26 C played a role... Hope she's getting stronger for that.
Some pictures from the animal fair.
We were greeted by some cute, albeit a little dirty, piglets by the entrance:

Daughter and I participated in a cooking workshop. Our role was to make pancakes out of rye flour () for everyone. We did fine, although at one point, one other participant, an older boy, either fainted from the heat or had an epileptic seizure... Reminded me of my dad, and I was so upset that a few of the last pancakes had to be thrown away...
I didn't buy any of these tomatoes and cucumbers and am regretting this. Maybe I should head back tomorrow, if daughter is well enough... View attachment 241421
Some animals could be touched, which we loved!

SnappishLooks like a really good day. I hope daughter bounces back quickly.





Also looks like you had a good day. What a waste of money on a ticket. I would rather enjoy a book in the comfort of my own home.I have had a wonderful day of tennis. We arrived in time to see the last of the wheelchair men’s singles final and the start of the wheelchair ladies singles final before we moved to watch the main attraction, the Ladies Singles Final.
Sloane Stephens (USA) v Simona Halep (Romania) was a fantastic match - very well played and very close, but Halep won in the end.
Then the Mens Doubles Final where French duo Herbert & Mahout were playing Austria/Croatia Marach & Pavic.
Needless to say the French crowd was supporting their men and they won. Lovely moments at the end when Mahut’s young son ran onto court to hug his Dad and the crowd spontaneously started singing the French national anthem.
Our viewpoint for the Ladies final when they cared where you sat

This lady read her book throughout the match ... apart from the last 5 points!

I must of made a wrong turn somewhere
What is this cold dark place?
Phew that sounds okHello and welcome to the cold dark room.
This is an international place of friendship and nonsense, but it is a little gloomy in here. Please pull up an armadillo and take a seat and hopefully the one-legged pirate will be along shortly to bring you your beverage of choice. He’s started a bar with the leprechaun and it gets out of hand at times [emoji849]
The flying jellyfish have a gentle glow when we remember to dust them and help us to find our way. Please watch out for the wool spider (if she exists) - she can be a little moody. Strange happenings involving woollen underwear may or may not be linked to her![]()
Hey There and welcome to the Cold Dark Rooms. Pull up an armadillo and sit back and enjoy the fun. If you should need a little light just poke a jellyfish. But watch out for the penguins (Sabine is very protective over them). If you want a drink Montgomery normally Brings coffee around in the morning but you will need to first find the One Legged Pirate if you want the alcoholic kind. And whatever you do don't fall asleep in the cellars or anywhere in here for that matter as the Wool Spider (If she exists) may just exchange your underwear for woolen ones she knitted again (If she exists)I must of made a wrong turn somewhere
