    It's that time of the year again!

    There's usually enough eye candy to make it a worthwhile watch. Standard is the bikini under the cold waterfall shots :mrgreen: Am I somewhere near the mark Bob?

    Flying fish

    Same thing is happening all along south coasts of Devon and Cornwall. We hope that the bass are down there as well. Had this one last week during a similar feeding frenzy.

    Too British?

    Re: Too British? That would be Hryvna then, I guess (Not really guessing-looked it up) at about twenty to the pound. £15 for a room seems reasonable. Breakfast also looks utilitarian rather than gastro. How's the trip going?

    Youtube of Col de la Bonette

    Brilliant. Loved the bikes. Loved the ssetting. I wonder on how many days a year you could expect weather like that in the alps. On my only trip it was similar - blue skies and 30degrees.
