The coffee morning continued, and, once the sun had passed the yardarm, turned into a beer and gin & tonic drinking session and a lovely chat about any subject that came up, of course, including Brexit 🙂
Nick & I did sneak off to watch the Monaco Grand Prix for a couple of hours too 🙂 Continue reading New Friends & On To Greece
