Big two. Yeah. Big. Big. Oh, there’s a big sound. There’s a big boat coming. So where’s that come? How did that get here? Because I’ve said to you now when the water level in the sea comes up they’ll open that and you can get through. So these will only be able to go out probably now. If you look now the level in here has come up a lot. So if this has come up that’s because it’s come up outside. So if you if you listen to me now I’m getting Mr. Technical here. You know when we went out on the boat and we toed up with the other boat. Yeah. There’ll only be so many ins and outs they can do because they’ll lose the water out of here through the day at low tide. Yeah. Yes. Because there’s no water coming in. Yeah. So now when the water level’s up, he’s going over now. Oh, yes. Now if if the water levels the same, they’ll just open that gate and he’ll just go straight out. Yeah. Which is how they’ll get out. Yeah. So they can only go out at high tide. Mini still on. So that’s good. Is Gina still on? Yeah, Gina’s still on. We’re all good. Right. Look, look, look. He’s got a trailer on his struck right out. Look at that. Good morning from Horn Flur. We had a a good night last night. We had tea out, came back, watched a movie, and uh had a good night’s sleep. So, we’re up this morning. The weather’s cloudy. And what woke you this morning, slow? What woke me this morning was the bread van tooting driving down the um the air. So you don’t have to walk into town for your quasonants and your pano chocolate. You’re there. I’m just butting in. You are? Yes. You don’t have to walk into town to get your quasonants and panos and baguettes. The little bread van comes around. Uh but we didn’t want any this morning, so we didn’t partake. So back to you, Slo. I’m just checking my solar input, which is 72 watts. Now, my system needs about, excuse me, my system needs about 29 watts to break even cuz that’s what it consumes when it’s idle. So, we’re actually on a positive. We’re putting in 72 watts, which on the battery side of it equates to 5 amps. We’re on the positive side. So, even though it’s cloudy, we should put some power back in. Now, me, let’s have a look at me battery. You can see that. So, my battery is down at 76%. So, I’m going to see when we’ve been out today and we come back cuz it’s a bit of a crap day if we’ve progressed from our 75%. And there you have it. That’s slow technical section for today. And we’re just waiting now for the kelllets to get dressed. Yes, we’re sorted. We’ve had our showers this morning on Helga.

And then that holds it on. the strap. It’s an elastic band. And I’ve got one there for the other bike. Oh, for goodness. So, get your hands up. Well, I suppose it’s a pretty good use of the old COVID masks, isn’t it? Only SL could think of that. Right, troops, are we ready? Certainly are. After after we’ve watched the comedy show this morning, there is Mr. SL. Oh, hold on. Oh, sorry. There is SL. Do you know that is a fate worse than death?

The Slaws continue their early summer holiday in France, in Helga their Hobby motorhome, with Gina their 1962 Fiat 500.
In this episode they leave Le Bec Hellouin and drive to their final destination on this France trip – Honfleur, staying on the Aire.
