I should have taken a photo, but didn't - there was a stall on the market today with two ladies offering minor clothing repairs while you waited.
What a great idea, and how very French! -

Good day Saturday Tooters.
After yesterday's relatively successful day trip by bus (which needed a bit of planning because of the random timetable) we're going to try going to a different place today.
If it goes according to plan it'll be one river-boat shuttle, and three buses. I'm not sure what time the the ferry / shuttle stops running on a Saturday, so we might need to get a bus from the bus station on the way back.
It seems like it's going to be another glorious day for the weather here in the south of #France
Wish us luck!
Have a lovely weekend -
It's two weeks today before we go on our French holiday - our first proper trip to L'hexagon for a few years - I hope my French isn't too rusty.
Although it's not cost effective, we're using #Interrail passes again - all TGVs are booked, but we're in the hands of #SNCF.
The route is to Portsmouth for the overnight ferry to St Malo. Then to Lyon for a night. Then onto Martigues (West of Marseille) for a few days.
The return journey is via Lille and Eurostar.I will be daily blogging as I did last year. I'll try to remember to use the #CoteBleuBlog hashtag.
The weather forecast is promising. Our daughter is coming to look after the cat. All the omens are pretty fair!
