Will we buy more stuff



Although our strictly tourist activities are less and less as we go along, we have made short visits to the fishing and pleasure port of Meze and Marseillan as well as the artist heaven of Pezanas. But what do you do in these places once you are there? In our current mood not much. Budget conscious Randall has a heart attack each timeYvonne picks up that fantastic leather bag or yet another eye catching necklace. He often takes to loitering outside these arty shops trying to look as bored as possible until Yvonne gives in and we move a bit further along the medieval streets. His latest ploy is to raise the issue of excess baggage if Yvonne looks like opening the wallet. Yvonne counters by negotiating her way through the not too hard working post office staff and the sometimes long queues to get things posted home.
