Entente Cordial

Entente cordial

3rd December

We saw a different vet at the same practice and agreed that as she was improving but very slowly to continue the medication. The main factor being some improvement every day. So armed with another bin full of pills we made our way to Rouget where Bass was doing her Xmas fair in a large chateau. All the bits looked really professional and there were loads of people milling about. It was quite amusing to see Wishstream parked up in a large field amongst loads of cars.

We have lost 3 days whilst waiting to see the vet so decided to start on our way to Spain from here. The weather today is glorious and we drove down towards Narbonne aiming for an Aire in a tiny village called Ouveillan. The directions were "next to the co-operative winery". Well we drove around this enormous industrial unit and had to ask 2 people for help. The entrance is really hidden and very narrow, but once you turn the corner it opens out to a large square area that can take 5 campers at a push. I suppose it is like sailing where the later van keeps out of the way of that moored earlier. But difficult in a confined space and the 2 already there hadn't parked that tidily. We ended up next to a similar sized van but head to toe with it. Ie our engine next to his bike rack. About an hour after we arrived, he started his engine.

Fine, he probably has small battery storage, but after about 10 minutes, his fumes seemed to be taking over our interior. Of course his exhaust is where ours is, just behind the cab, and the exhaust was pouring out onto us. All very difficult, but he was very helpful when I explained that we couldn't breath. So that is another thing to remember when mooring up. It's not easy.
