Plans are coming together

We are planning to go over to France at the end of July/beginning of August, once Kev retires.  We have booked Stefan our pilot for the Channel crossing...gulp!  We are hoping that The Thames behaves itself as we hardly got out last year.  We are booked for the winter at Auxerre and then we will go home to Mere, Wiltshire until Spring 2014.  All very exciting.....I must get going with my French lessons....Rossetta Stone here I come!
