More Prunes

I can't believe it has been so long since my last blog!! Time does get away when it doesn't matter what time it is!!

Visited a Prune factory. Laughed at a 'Medicinal Tin' of Prunes that claimed 'Makes purging a pleasure'

Went off the canal, onto the Garonne River, then into the Lot River through a series of locks and canals. But the Garonne is fast flowing and shallow, so you need to follow a Pilot Boat through the channels. We were fine, but the small boat in front us ran into much bother... grounded twice, ended up on the shore line twice, and had 3 goes at getting into the lock. It just reminds me how good Peter is in steering our 35 tonne barge.
