Retail therapy

The fridge in the summer kitchen at the pool needs replacing. Now the weather is warming up we wanted to buy a new one to ensure it’s in place for our guests. So we nipped to Troyes for a little bit of retail therapy.

We soon found a fridge that would fit the space, the challenge was would it fit in the car. The customer service team at Leclerc were brilliant, we’d explained the packaging for the fridge could not be bigger than 70cm, so they kindly brought the boxed up fridge out for us to measure. All was good, we paid for it and the chap helped Brian put it in the car.

That done, we headed to Action to buy a few things, it’s one of those shops that you go in to buy one thing and come out with so much more that you really didn’t know you needed, so whilst there I couldn’t resist but try on this hat for €2.79. Why wouldn’t I need it?

A lovely spot of lunch at la Boulangerie Feuillette then fortified us for a little walk around McCarthur Glen.
