Texas




Where did the morning go? It seemed like no sooner had we got up when it was time for lunch. Robert, pictured here with Michael and Ella, had very kindly invited us out for lunch. Mas de Roux had space and, as usual, provided a really good lunch.

Tonight we went to see the band Texas in the arene in Nimes. I always get a real buzz sitting in this 2000 years old amphitheatre and watching some event. Whilst the installed seating isn't the prettiest, there are still lots of original stone seats to sit on, which puts a real strain on your bum after a couple of hours. After 4 or 5 hours you're in danger of doing yourself some damage. Next time we must take cushions. Whilst I didn't know a lot about the band and was only aware of a couple of their hits, they put on a very good show and we thoroughly enjoyed them.
