Hi Gang!

Just a quick one to say hello, as I’m not on Harley this does not count as an official blog entry.

Mrs Dookes and I are just coming to the end of a splendid ten day break in France. We pootled down the Autoroute to Montluçon, hung a left and ended up in the Allier region. Very rural, very quiet, very food and wine orientated; just what the Doc ordered!

The view from the Gîte.

Also, Clermont Auvergne, great Rugby team, pretty good beer!

France; such a big country, so many different wines, so little time….!

See you all soon. Dookes (& Mrs Dookes)
