Bazj Posted August 24, 2009 Report Share Posted August 24, 2009 Wildfires in all the holiday hot-spots - are you happy that it precipitates down in Blighty? Well I am currently in Nice in the South of France and it is bloody hot here. 30 degrees for most of the past 13 days and still got until Thursday before we start the drive home!! I can't wait to get back to "normal" temperatures and rain. Mind you, the wife thinks I'm mad!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bazj Posted August 27, 2009 Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 last full day down here in Nice today and managed to get third degree burns and ran out of anti mozzy spray as well. Gone the whole 3 weeks with no bites until tonight and managed to get 6 in 2 hours..... bugger! and as for the prices.... I know asp has mentioned paying ?3.60 for a pint of beer on one thread, I have seen cans of diet coke for 5 euros (just under a fiver) and a pint of draught Amstell in one bar was ?8.00 Good job the room has a fridge and there is a big supermarket nearby!!
