Some of you have been following my adventures in Spain and France throughout January. Here is Positively the Last Memory. This is a shot taken aboard MV Armorique as she set out from Saint-Malo for Portsmouth in driving rain and winds of getting on for 50 mph. I can’t imagine how it was that this miserable matelot survived intact. But she did. Perhaps because at midnight, the wind suddenly dropped.
And actually, did I ever post my first shot of the holiday, waiting in line at Folkestone to get to France via the Channel Tunnel?
Rain then too. Luckily, the rain did the opposite of what the English children’s rhyme demands, and stayed resolutely away from Spain the whole time we were there.
For Brian’s Last on the Card.
From Pyrenees to Pennines 
You see what a lucky soul you are? And you’ve even got the washing dry, back home? Have a great week, Margaret!

Rather like my first photo from Estonia. Glad that you had generally good weather the rest of the time.

A lovely month! February’s far from my favourite month but at least it’s lighter when I open the curtains in the mornings.

Always best to leave the rain until the day you come home.

Rain’s great for photos and the garden. But not a lot else.

That’s what Spain is for. Though they could do with a LOT more water. I hardly dared shower!

Looks like an impressionist painting. I would not have liked to travel on that boat!

Whew, the weather looks awful. The crossing looks scary. Glad you were okay, and arrived safe and sound.

I was just grateful that the wind did in fact drop. That I survived intact is nevertheless a miracle!
