Falaise autrefois exposition
Washed hair am, discovered TV in lounge where point for hair dryer is. Sat and talked with neighbour, Norman & Brenda. Had lunch. Idea is to see castle, but Bill is snoring! I’ve found my nighties - but the man who saw me in my t-shirt keeps speaking to me! It’s a wonder he recognised me in my clothes! Went to castle p.m. We had a guided tour round the castle, including the room (supposedly) where Arlette gave birth to Wm Conqueror, and had a dream about the tapestry - don’t know what though! We also visited a château where there was an exposition de Falaise autrefois; not much there really, but quite an interesting collection of old photographs. Sat about after our meal talking to Norman and Brenda. Weather hot.
