Tam and Toby ~~ Hunting Zorba .....Take two.

[Northernraider]

We’re sitting at an aire in France near Basel that is documented as having a €5 charge but the credit card machine has been blocked off as has the borne (covid?). However we still get free electricity, grey and black water dump, just no fresh water.

This one has 5 separate service areas ..one for each van which is quite handy

 

[Northernraider]

So I know you are all on the edge of your seats with anticipation of tonight's cullinery delights ....may I present
"oeufs au jambon ommelete et sauce brune" with " pain croustillant" on the side ..and out of date Portuguese beer ...which I've discovered is actually out of date Spanish beer

I like your bs work. I would have finished with a swirly touch. To much wastage on the sides

Not easy to drizzle with a squeezey bottle

You're not holding out much hope then!
I think Jade & Milo might be a better hook than the offer of a plate of "Austrian" beans

 

[Onemanandhisdog]

although the white one does have blood all over the inside

Not always what you think, my brother is a auto insurance assessor, see some pretty grizzly things and he has even refused to look at stuff until the external flesh and gore has been removed, often animal blood outside and inside. Not that that makes it any better.

If you‘re on Facebook, Tam, take a look at the group Road trip: UK to Greece. There is often useful info about borders, places to stop etc on it.

I'm no longer on Facebook it drove me nuts lol

 

[barsteward]

Nice old building though ....I bet @BreweryDave will like it ...

What makes you think Brewery Dave wold have any interest in the building other than the description mentions Fortified.

I really can't see how you would be any more entertaining than you already are.

Unless of course you can fart along to Scotland the Brave after consuming the beans.

 

[Gellyneck]

HP sauce I take it...

I despair!
HP costs money!
Tam will have purloined sufficient quantities of "Scottish chippy sauce" prior to his departure.
Just hope he remembered to top-up after his premature, eh...... start!
