Greetings from France

I'm spending this week in a small friendly hotel with free WiFi, so you may hear from me a lot. My room has both a double bed and a single bed, which is rather more than I need. Sadly it doesn't have a bath (although there is a shower of course), a minibar or a kettle. So I will shortly be off to the salon for a drink and a look at the pile of English novels someone has kindly left there.

My spoken French has passed muster so far with the taxi driver and several hotel staff. No-one has either looked blank or tried to switch into English. The taxi driver did keep correcting my terrible grammer, but in a helpful sort of way.

Glad to hear you made it ok.

Do give me a call if you get a chance, though I'm aware you are likely to be busy, so don't worry about it. :)
