Out and About.

Friday 9th of October

A late start today - Sunny - Dry - Warm.

I searched the web and found that the nearest Aldi is a long way from Trebeurden but there are two Lidl shops within 20 minutes drive.

Ipad loaded with Google maps route - off we go.

We chose the one in Lannion and found it on a retail park in a part of the town we hadn't been to before.

A very big - new looking store - just like the English ones - but French stock of course.
Prices much better than our regular supermarkets and the quality good.

We bought a kilo of whole rabbit for 8 Euros - stew for Sunday dinner.
A drinkable French red wine at E 8.50 a gallon !! ( vin De France 2014)

We are  pleased that we can buy at better prices now - it will make our money go further.

Back on board Jackie heated up a ready made Paella for lunch ( not brilliant ) but we needed something to make up for a small meal tonight - Its FRIDAY - LE BENJI'S !!

We had reserved a Table for tonight and we arrived at 8 pm - the first to sit down to eat !
Jackie had a huge platter of mixed cheeses - ( all good ) with salad and some tasty but hard little bread sticks.
I had a platter of mixed meat - very good but they did include the Anduil  tripe roll - horrid !!
Salad - bread sticks and a bowl of sliced brown bread.

What we expected to be a light meal was huge.
Jackie finished off with Tart Tatin - lovely.

The 3 piece rock band set up behind me and started at 9pm -then they stopped at 9.30 for dinner !!

Benji had some help in the bar tonight but he was doing everything else including the cooking !!

The band finally got restarted at 10.30 - pretty good - English music mainly.
The place was fairly full but they kept on coming in until well after midnight !

When the band played one local favourite number the place rocked !!
Benji does his trick of dancing on the bar !!

A great night - We danced and danced until about 1 am !

                                              5 minutes walk to Blazer - No problem.

Another Great Day.
