Our town carnival takes place tomorrow and the forecast is not good for our area. Maybe it will be your turn for a fine day. How ingenious that little water wheel is - everyone seems to have entered into the spirit of the occasion and I'm pleased that you and your friend managed to see some of the preparations.

We wondered what time we would have to visit if we wanted to see the race, but we would have had to be there by 7am and not allowed out again until 5pm! so we thought it best to stay at home and see if we can spot them on TV!<br />Lots on TV tonight it all looks very excitingSue in Suffolkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13166036914348424622noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-27376363067392666892014-07-04T12:12:28.722-07:002014-07-04T12:12:28.722-07:00I am so envious of your closeness to the Tour de F...I am so envious of your closeness to the Tour de France. And I understand the frustration you and your neighbors must be feeling. That's a lot of cyclists. My husband and I are setting our alarm for 3:00 am tomorrow to watch the live coverage on television at a friend's house. My eyes will be floating in coffee by the time it's over. I second the request from angry parsnip about the rain. <br />Sandy O' in Southern Arizona @ myyellowswing.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-87181286831208046812014-07-04T11:36:30.798-07:002014-07-04T11:36:30.798-07:00I think friend W had a brilliant idea.
