Where the hell have you been for the last 24 hours?

The horrendous weather problems in Languedoc made headline news last night and Nîmes featured heavily, although Jan said that they didn't mention me. Strange!

First thing this morning, Floyd rang to confirm that they were all on the coach and on their way. The driver had kindly agreed to drop them at the peage at junction 27 on the A9, in order to avoid me having to drive into Nîmes and having to deal with any problems that might occur in that area. Nice one driver - thank you. All goes to plan for a change and, after a very nice lunch, the boys are on court at 15.00 doing what they should have been doing 24 hours earlier. The rest of the afternoon and evening was a blur of tennis, pool, gin and tonics and Jan's famous barbecued spare ribs. We all slept well.
