One of the brighter moments in the last few months was my trip to Brittany, staying with a cousin and then sailing with some friends off the coast out of the Vilaine from La Roche Bernard.

I was there when the old boats had their annual gathering and here is a photo record of the day.

Thank you Messieurs Dames for your hospitality.

I also discovered a rather interesting restaurant bar cum theatre called the Sarah Bernard. Sarah was of course a famous French actress who was quite an accomplished sculptress too.

I can recommend this delightful French Port for a fasinating holiday. September was quiet and warm.
