Drumming practice update:
Before dinner last night, I wandered down the shore to the right of the hotel looking for a shady spot to practise on my drum pad ie the pad one straps to one's thigh.
Even at 6 o'clock, the sun was merciless and very high in the sky, but I did find some large rocks to sit on with partial shade.
Very difficult to take a photograph of oneself in this situation.

Last night's dinner:
 |
| Kir cassis to start with |
 |

| Parfait cerise |
After a 90 minute southward drive this morning, arrived at our cabin at the campsite in St Georges - a couple of miles south of Royan.
Last year there were two female receptionists at this site: good cop/bad cop.
Likewise this year - same positions behind the counter. There was a short queue for both of them and apprehension was building inside my breast; who would I get?
Joy of joys, Good cop! (A couple of metres to my right, I could hear bad cop growling under her breath. She had smelled blood but had been thwarted - this time. She knows very well that we're here for 6 days so there is plenty of time for her to get her prey.)
