When I arrived home, Keith showed me a programme he'd recorded earlier... it was the route for next year's Tour de France, and the race was going up Mont Ventoux! We decided to watch the programme after dinner with Sophie, but I already knew it started in Lille and spent a few days in the northern part of France.
Sophie came home and we all sat in the kitchen, with Keith and I playing cards. There were no surprise visitors tonight! After Sophie had cooked a delicious meal of chicken fajitas, we settled down to watch the Tour de France programme and we were delighted to see that one of the starts was also in Bayeux! I'm going to have to record every day of it! We also learned that another start was in Bollene, where we turned off the autoroute to get to Sablet, so we're all looking forward to seeing the race take place next July. We're still going to try and catch it at the end of our holiday... somehow!
Gomez was naughty tonight and wouldn't come in when Sophie called him at about 10pm. She could see him further up the road but he ignored her and ran into the bushes. Whether he had caught something and was chasing it, she didn't know. Later, when she looked out of her bedroom window, she saw a huge badger cross the road and go into Paul's garden opposite! It was then that Gomez decided to come in and wolfed down two pouches of food! He is a little monkey!
