ANDY, 25 |
ANDY'S BIRTHDAY
EDITION
25 !!!
Andy reached 25 this Easter and the occasion
was celebrated in tremendous fashion during a long weekend
in France. Read on for more...

BUCCANEER IN FRANCE |
New arrival! Recently
Kirstin and Matt invested in another caravan, which will be
stored in France when not in use, allowing easier touring
of Europe during holidays. The new 'Buccaneer' will spend
it's quiet time parked in a campsite the attractive North-Western
French town of Dinan. Close to St. Malo, Dinan is easy to
reach via a short drive off the ferry. Here are a couple of
pictures of the town centre:

Centre, Street leading to the old port, One of the many restaurants,
Statue of 14th century hero of Dinan. |

OUTSIDE THE 'BLOCKHAUS' |
Birthday Activities - afternoon.
There was much to see in the region,
however we ended up on the coast looking at this German WWII
bunker. Good fun nonetheless.
|
GRANT DOES A PHIL MITCHELL?? |
Birthday Activities - afternoon.
Ever one to realise an opportunity, Grant
attempted to take advantage of the proximity of cliff edges
and the high winds that day to rediscover what it was like
to be single. (Only joking - I can assure our readers that
no animals or Helens were hurt in the production of this website
- ed.)
|
WINING AND DINING |
Birthday Activities - evening.
'Camping Hallerais', our caravan site,
has many features one of which is a noted restaurant. This
seemed the logical place to choose for a birthday meal, and
in an area famous for it's pork cuisine the popular choice
at the table was of course the porn loin or 'mignon'
|
MATT PONDERS A MOVE TO HAVANA |
Aftermath. After
such excertions the only sensible thing to do is of course
to sit back and take it easy, demonstrated perfectly here
by Matt. "I love it when a plan comes together".
|
| Time for one more night out before packing
up and heading home. Pictures show (again, clockwise from top
left) The brothers grim?, Matt and the obligatory wine, Grant
shocks Andy with his description of the size of his easter eggs,
packing up to return on Monday morning. |
