Do you think that's funny?
Do you have a car at all?
Remember! No donkeys on British freeways... :emot19:
yes, I thought it was funny, then again there is not much that I don't find funny haha
secondly, no, I don't have a car, so don't wait up waiting for it to brake down! hahaha

Here some pics from our excurse to Vilefranche a villiage in he Pyrenees. The villiage iself was established in the mid 19th centuary and as far as I know the fort in the 12th cenuary. I was Louix the 14th who made it to a real stronghold to keep about 100 soldiers ready in he war against Spain.

Hi Carl. I hope you're looking at hese. I'm sure you would like checking fors like these. I'm not into the military thing, but it's fasinating to see how people "organised" life in those days. You can see hese "shooting slots" all along every wall. I've never seen anything of he kind. The fort is concepated in way, every time a army gains pars of it, the defenders retreat into a safer "locked" part of the fort. Several times... Obviously this was typical of medieval forts. But this one seemed special.
1) This is a beach a a holiday resort. Empy! No in summer.
2) This is what you call waves in the Mediteranian see.
3) After a day in he sun.
4) Just me and myself...
1) We just wanted a break after hours of driving...
2) Quick relief seemed near...
3) Eugh! Huh!
4) That's the way somebody else commented.
1) My good old Hyundai. Sill driving at that time. notfair
2) Our stay for 10 days.
Realy very nice pics. love the old fort (I also want to go there).
France is full of forts and castles. You don't know where to start ...
How on earth do you wee in that loo......I'd never be able to straighten up again, or don't you bend your knees?
how did that guy cement the roof,with a catapult???? ps,great pics jnr
That's right Diana. You have o squat. here's no beter position to ge buiseness done, but beware when you want o straiten up again. lol
This is typical for public toilets in mediteranian countries.
