Day 55 – Riom
Woke early because one of the dogs wanted to go out so I was up at 6am. Kettle on to wake Tina at 7am as we need to be on the road before 9am. We get to the Vet early at 9:10am and wait our turn. We are called in shortly after 9:30. We explained that Bobby didn\’t want to swallow the worming tablet last year so an injection would be better thus year. He didn\’t flinch. Woody however didn\’t want to swallow the pills this time but did so with a little persuasion and technique from the Vet.
We were on the road at 10am after paying €20.50 which so cheap compared to what others have paid for two dogs. We decided to take the toll road as this will reduce the time on the road. We only have 3 days to travel the 1100 km or around 700 miles. The roads were good and we arrived at out destination around 3pm and were later joined by one other van making two for the night.
We raised the satellite dish for the first time for many weeks in anticipation of receiving something. Voila….we had BBC1. We watched the news and later the rugby international.
Tomorrow will be another long drive and again we will use tolls to save some time. It won\’t be long before we will be back at the tunnel.
