I never want to speak French again

We survived our trip! Nick and I are now happily back in England. I plan to do a lot of blog posts with the whole story of the trip, but those will have to wait a few days because over the next few I need to move into Cambridge, collect everything I need for the year (since Nick leaves for America on Monday and then I will be carless), and set up the desktop computer I'll be using for the year. But the short story is that the trip was more-or-less good, and we had no real epics, which is pretty much a miracle!!
