Doing it different this year!

9 of us jet off to Bordeaux in the morning and then to a friends old farm house for the weekend.

He is already there with a few lads, and hopfully the pool is sorted!
Lots of wine, beer and cheese will be consumed as we cheer on the competitors!
The huge pub projector is set up to display onto the wall of the barn!

Safe Journey PH'ers!
