I have just finished a 3 week mini-tour in France with the Delta Ladies which has gone reasonable well and the weathers been alright too. The UK election results have been very different than I expected and the games not over yet.  I kept reasonably in touch whilst away too. I really must make more effort with the language as I was again woefully inadequate in that respect and really wish I wasn’t.  France was as usual remarkably civilised on the whole.  Possibly there may be a further trip later in the year for some more gigs too.

A lot of driving but not too much bother, though 675k a day on a couple of occasions was a bit of a stretch.

On the return trip I heard about Grenfell  tower disaster.  I live in a high rise so a bit close to home in many ways. Sadly its looking like this could have been avoided too.
