After a very early start today, 3.30am, to get to Bristol airport to fly to Toulouse and then drive down to Pau, we have finally arrived. Both Alfie, Emily and I are all where we need to be.
I have given Alfie a stretch this afternoon and he seems to be coping well after his long trip down. It looks like the weather is going to be decent up until Sunday, which should make for a good competition.
As I am getting ready for the 4star Jenny and the kids are having a few days break in the UK while half term is on. From initial reports there will be no rest for Jenny – as someone who is terrified of heights, it seems that she has already endured a high wire ride with our pair of ‘tree monkeys’!
Cheers,
Bill
