Just about to turn light off and a notification arrived. Sleep or Travisty? Another great installment. Poor Will recognises his earlier effort was a disaster. Not looking good this time, either. It’s time to deal with Kenzo.
Thank you Mark.
What a great comment. You are so right, @CincyKris. Sometimes less (money, beauty, fancy cars and houses etc), is more, which is why many of us love @Robert Hugill’s stories so much.
For those into knights Templar, the da Vinci code, energy lines linking places, this is the place to be. It was also a starting point for pilgrims off to Santiago de Compostela. Frankly walking up the steep hill to get to it was a walk of shame as more elderly people than I were virtually trotting up the hill, and talking at the same time! I needed various stops to talk photos of blank walls whilst my breathing returned to normal. Not a fit boy.
Hey, amazingly there were only 4 cars in front of us at the French border control at Channel tunnel entrance in UK. When we arrived in Uk we could see miles of stopped traffic on other side trying to get into the terminal. Phew 😅 Just had a delicious French dinner at our hotel. Substantially cheaper than what we have been paying in Uk. Last night a tiny glass of ordinary Chardonnay cost £18, 20-something in EUR or USD. How anyone except super rich can afford to live in central London is beyond me!
Tomorrow a long journey to Vézelay in Burgundy for a three night stay and then back to Valencia to start my proofreading for the Anthology.
hugs to all,

Another very good read. Amusing how the two mothers working together manage to take control of the flat being cleaned up. A fearsome pair when together! 😱
Lee, I agree with others that this is a great addition to the collection of stories which you have posted. I’m busy catching up with the chps and the multitude of comments, some of which have annoyed me. As I’m too old to deal with stupidity, I just block those people for whom I have no interest in their opinion, to which of course they are entitled.
Well done, Lee this is v enjoyable, thanks
Another couple of turns of the screw on the rack to which Will finds himself. What a shite thing of Austen to do. And as for the actor creature…. Almost makes me want Z**h back…. Well, almost…..
Thank you Mark
PS, I was thinking of Granger meeting Lord Byron at Xmas, today as we are staying almost next door to the house which he bought for his wife in Exmouth, Devon. He wasn’t v generous is all I can say!
So, the visit to my sister is concluding and tomorrow we head to the West of England, ending up on a cliff top at Lizard Point. My sister hasn’t been on good form and the dementia is more and more apparent, then suddenly this evening at dinner she was sparkling. My brother in law is amazingly patient with her. Also saw my great great niece, Peach, who is two in Jan. So sweet that she knew her wicked great uncle’s name- she’s been trained to get into my will!. 😛
