I should have listened more at school

So since I wrote last I have had my first real day of sabbatical leave and what fun it is. I did spend the first couple of days working out what time it would be in England and what everyone would be up to at school! Life on the road is fun. You never know at the beginning of the day where you will end it. We woke this morning in a carpark in a small corner of France and we are now in a huge campsite by the Mediterranean sea. This campsite has every sign in six languages. I was so impressed to hear the Spanish receptionist check in the lady before us in French and then turn to us and say hello and ask us how she could help us. I say impressed but also jealous. I have managed my first real interaction with a petrol station assistant (without Mark). She took me off into a very strange office to pay and then our card would not work so we did a bit of shrugging and I seemed to do a good makaton sign for cash so she smiled as I went away a returned with a 50 Euro note.
Hunton and Horace are behaving well although Hunton is very jealous that he is not coming to Barcelona tomorrow.
We have just booked in to this campsite for 3 nights. I think that is the longest we will have ever camped anywhere in the world! (That makes it sound like I am a well travelled person!)
I'm off to bed now but will add some photos in the morning! Good Night
