Holiday minisynopsis.   
Wing ran well - it's so much nicer to ride with a working clutch.

Downside was increased fuel consumption.

Set off Friday night, and rode straight through.

Usual route: A26/A1/Paris/A10/N10/D947

Slobbed about for six days.

Sis-in-law has acquired an abandoned cat (and two kittens)

Can almost "understand" cat owners now. Almost.

Set off Sat 9 am, arrived home around 1am.

Different route: courtesy of Garmin.

D947/N10/A10/A28/A13/Rouen/A28/A16.

The A28 near Le Mans is new, empty, and quite soulless.

Egg Money cards work in autostations. Thankfully.

Autoroute Tolls came to over 90 euros for the round trip.

Non-smoking came to an end after a week, whist waiting for the ferry
out.

Non-shaving was abandoned yesterday, as I looked like an old English
sheepdog. 

Wing now up to 99,843 miles.

Ye gods - glad I didn't witness that.

Not bad for a car engine.

Hmmm. I'll let you off that one, cos you're poorly.

And correct.
