Rtt Photos - Part 2

[ChrisG]

Says there's too many pictures to post on one thread, and if I reply to my other thread with the rest it says when they merge there'll be too many of them. Hence a second post. Mods please feel free to stick them together if you can (or delete them if there's a reason why I'm not allowed to post this many





Big Dave, Saga Lout, Aircooled's mate (sorry, I'm crap with names), MarkyMark and Danny boy at the bar


"When I tried it before Megan helped me put it away..."


Catsbum's OCD kicks in


Mmmm, campsite espresso


I don't think that translates as "The grottiest Carpe-TDM"


"Boucle Carpe Diem"... whatever that means


Kris and Tony at the Grotte de Grand Roc


where the houses are built in to the cliff


Myself and Tony thinking about fois gras


Edith (Mrs Guinness) looks on in horror as Tony puts ketchup on cake


Dandys rather camp fire


Oradour-sur-Glane





Pulling over for a leg stretch, Kris, Tony, Poldark and myself realised we had stoves, mugs, coffee and cake


though someone did try and hide the cake


Foraging for extra snacks


I seem to have gained a passenger


Unsurprisingly Chateaubriant seems to have a Chateau


And a mighty fine creperie



Never mock the person who seems to have brought excess luggage space


Kris, myself and Poldark (with Tony behind the camera) setting up camp for the last time at Mont Saint Michel


I was getting a bit hungry by this point


With several bottles of red wine on the go things started to get a little blurry at this point


and for some it's a bit too much



but at least someone's doing something usefull [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif[/img]


Sunday morning and it's off to Mont St Michel


TeDeum, Syra, Poldark, Tony and Kris at the entrance


er...


After a good blag from Kris we're in to the monastry for a fraction of the price and with no queuing






"Your mother was a hampster and your father smelled of elderberries!"


Chris was worried at how long his egg was taking, while Tony and I were more concerned by how big it was


A very big fireplace


trying for an arty shot


I think this is where Kris developed her obsession with buttresses


Tony goes for a calendar shot



you can never have too much cake


see no evil, think no evil, eat no evil


Dinner on the sea wall while waiting for the ferry



Not convinced Martyn's recovered from last nights wine yet


The last cake!

Oradour sur Glane. Kewl.

In the 1st pic I was actually just looking across at the shop wondering about going back to buy some more cake!

In the 2nd I was dupped by ChrisG & Tony into checking the alignment of my cans (in fairness they'd actually spotted that my r.h. can had a bent bracket) but I feel sure now that this was all just a ruse to create this photo opportunity!

I do recall we'd only gone in to find out when she was shutting, but miraculously four of us managed to come out with cake but no one knew when she closed! [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rotflmmfao.gif[/img]
