Cooler in the Limousin today, working close to Ussel not nearly as warm as the Cher.

We had light rain in the night but the puddles are still evident as the atmosphere is so very humid. The sky is completely overcast, not grey happily, but no discernible clouds so overall it's rather oppressive and 20°.

We've had a very wet morning with quite heavy rain at times. It is now overcast and considerably cooler than we had in ages. Thunder and lightning storms are due any minute now and supposed to last over several hours. It makes a pleasant change from hot and humid.

Raining off and on all day today near Flayat in the Limousin. We have no roof on a house today just a tarp.

It was raining most of the day in Amiens yesterday and we got absolutely soaked. Today it’s sunny,22C and pleasant in Montreuil-sur-Mer (not by the sea!). We set out for St Valery sur Somme, but it was heaving before we even got there, so gave up.

We set out for St Valery sur Somme, but it was heaving before we even got there, so gave up. Your posts from the Somme are making me nostalgic! Many holidays and early house-hunting took place there with my husband. We decided we'd like to buy in St Valery until we found out the price of property there! It's a lovely place with fond memories but so hard to park, especially on market day.

It's a lovely place with fond memories but so hard to park, especially on market day. i’m not surprised you fancied living there, Jardinière, it’s a lovely little town. We drove there today, our last day, and had a very pleasant time; it was sunny and fairly warm at 22C, although at times a cold wind blew. We had a very interesting wander around the town, although some of the steeper lanes were a bit too much for me. Just before leaving we saw three groups of walkers being led along the bay - judging by the numbers involved it’s a very popular thing to do, but obviously needs guides who know what they are doing.

This is far more like it! It's my type of summer's day at a high of only 25.

A cool and misty start to the day in the Somme area after several pleasant days following getting soaked at Amiens. The mist became thicker and on reaching Boulogne it rained heavily, got rather soaked when we walked to a restaurant for lunch.
We're now in the queue for the Tunnel, been through French control and queuing for English passport check; it’s now slowly drying up, 18C.
