From tours we picked up the rn10 and drove too far in one day after a couple of failed attempts to find accommodation. Tom tom took us to a hotel that turned out to be a girly dancing bar! So driving 550 km in one day we ended up at the arcachon basin beyond bordeaux. Checked into a trendy hotel with fabric wallpaper, muted colours and pool with palm trees. In this oasis we satisfied our need for wine with a top drawer bottle of fleurie by the pool as the heavens opened. Following breakfast we found the sea and local fisherman along with industrial quantities of oysters. Decided to go for san sebastien and crossed into spain just as 'changes' came up on the cd changer. Dave is never far from our thoughts and he even managed to get his top tune on as we approached the start of the tour of espana. Bed secured some well earned tapas and cerveza has now been consumed and our first espanyol hablo'd. Apparently richard gere arrived today for the film festival which explains the difficulty finding a room. Also real sociedad were at home but we couldn't make kick off. Anyway they are managed by ex fulham boss chris coleman who talks welsh so the team can't know what he's waffling about (sheep boyo yacky da sheep). We'll have to try for racing santander who are just along the coast and in la liga. Hasta luego.

Hola, que tal?
Racing at home 26/9 v Villarreal
Deportivo at home 26/9 v Recreativo
Good luck with the Spanish footie - Barca beat Sevilla 2-1 on Saturday - was easier than the score suggests - Sevilla came to defend with only Kanoute up-front - he scored their goal but it was only a consolation late-on.
