I have resisted the temptation to go and watch the tour de France today as it passes through our area. It's just too darned hot to go and stand somewhere for the best part of 3 to 4 hrs to watch the race pass in the blink of an eye. If you watch it on channel 4 then you can see what Rekkersland is like. Starts and finishes in Nimes today and then tomorrow the next stage leaves from the Pont du Gard heading towards the Alps. Rather them than me in this heat. I'm chilling (sort of) in my budgie smugglers - its 36° in the shade here today. Pastis time beckons...
