    I have just completed a mega-trip to the UK which resulted in me driving over 3000km inside the UK to visit every known living relative on the English side of my family. It is probably the last time that I will see some of them. I followed that with a Christmas break in Toulouse with my French family. I am now back home and looking for a day or two of rest, starting my usual routine next Monday. I also became a great-grandfather but I can take no credit for that achievement.

    I have no long-term plans except for a visit much later this year to the Inverness/Aberdeen area to visit friends who live in the Grampian region. (And I hate whisky!)

    Plenty of work to do keeping the house looking good and doing minor repairs so that, along with continuing my French lessons and supporting this site should keep me busy.

    Well, we might bump into each other, and if you are presented with free whisky I'll take it off your hands.
