Well, here I am again after a break of nearly a year. Yes- am just two days away from the off - going to France and turning right this time, heading for the Iberian peninsula - thats Spain and Portugal to most of us. And due to public demand I will be blogging as I go.

The gang's all here and raring to go - probably all looking a little older and in some cases a bit rusty,  ( I leave you to decide which of the team that description relates to). Its been a good year, lots of great things happened especially over the summer, been lovely to spend time with old pals and to make new friends. Huge thanks to Sally who has opened her home to Kye and I for the majority of the time, I know she is looking forward to having her peace and quiet  back and not dreading the postman arriving every morning - what is it about dogs and postmen???

Anyway- will be setting off on Sunday morning, Irene is coming for the first week - heading down to southwest France first to spend some time in the Cathar country then after I drop her at Bilbao I am going to follow the Camino to Santiago de Compostela - some of you may have seen the film The Way, if you have you will have an idea of the wonderful scenery that awaits especially over the Pyrenees. I will try not to talk about the weather too much this time, would be great to receive comments over the blog as it stops me feeling as if I am talking to myself.
So, bye for now and see you in France!!
