Distant Cousins

Rob's grandmother and my grandmother were 1st cousins; not sure what that makes us but after about five years we managed to catch up for lunch in a great wee restaurant the other side of Narbonne. Rob,his wife Jean and two friends had just finished a week on the Canal du Midi so it provided an ideal opportunity to meet up. We never seem to have time when we're in Scotland. The restaurant served good food creatively prepared and served and was full of character. Such a relief as when we booked it we only had internet photos to go on. As Rhona wasn't feeling too well and wanted to get back to the hotel, we didn't linger once the bill was paid. In any case we had to get back for an open air Gospel concert in the village. You'll know that we're not into "Praising the Lord" but the singers were great and full of enthusiasm and although the sky was heavy, the rain didn't come. After the concert, this time we did linger as we stayed to eat some supper with them before they went off for a night in a hotel and their next date on the tour.
