Annick’s drive is a sloping turning space with a 1 in 4 descent between stone walls to the main road. Mary Lou’s brakes are rusty and Nick hasn’t driven anything except a corkscrew since February. It’s a nervy three point turn and a grinding noise down between the narrow stone walls and we are back on the road, Ali following in her Beetle.
We stop in Landivisiau to visit SuperU. The checkout has distancing markers and the clerk wears a mask, but there are no one way systems or screens. Then, French supermarkets are never as busy as UK ones either.
We have a sandwich, refuel the van and head back to the N12. Traffic is quite busy and with the shopping time added we decide our planned destination is too far today so we stop at Caulnes, in a park near the old wash house. Ali finds a message inviting us to an interview on Radio Cornwall tomorrow, so she rings presenter, Julie Skentelbery, to accept.
Our neighbours, Clive and Theresa, call us on a video chat and Ali takes the phone outside to show them around.
Four more vans arrive over the hour, kids in the park finish their games and we are left with the evening birdsong and lovely sunshine. It is still daylight when we turn into bed.
