Bonjour, France

Hey everybody,

I am sitting in a cafe in Marseille where they have the stupid french keyboards with the letters in the wrong spot.
If I just type nor,qlly ,y zriting turns out like this. So it is tqking q long ti,e to zrite ,y e,qils qnd pîssing ,e off heqps.
I got to Marseille last night from Paris. I was going to stay in Paris for 3 days, but ended up staying longer as it was so fun and so much to see.
But before that, I decided that becquse I hadn;t seen q lot of southern england, I would go to dover and cqtch the ferry to france. I stayed 2 nights in dover, where I wandered about on the whitecliffs qnd went up to the dover castle and the old roman fortifications. Dover itself is a cute little town, very quiet. But they did have some live bands plqying on teh dock. It was called rock the dock and was a free festival, so all the locals were there - boy, there were some damn ugly people. (Em - remember when we saw 1927 play in the back of a truck in kalbarri? It was like that, but there were 2 trucks and the music was better)

Ah crap, I was going to write all about Paris, but I couldn;t be bothered. It is a beautiful sunny day, so I think today I will go find the beach.

Talk to you later

Oui, oui, c'est francais

Hey people,

I am finally having some holidays, which I've been totally hanging out for. However, I am totally disorganised and haven't organised a thing. Today is the first day of my holidays and the only thing I've booked is La Tomatina which is the last couple of days of my hols. But I can't wait, La Tomatina is like the biggest food fight in the world, it will be awesome. The original plan was egypt and spain, but now I am changing my mind and going to france and spain. But I will still get to do some diving, but in Spain so that will be cool.

Anyway, I will let you know where my total lack of plans get me in the next couple of days!!
