Getting ready and over coming a fear

So back in Gap and we decided it was time to go away again. So take this:

and then drink this:and you end up with this:So we decided it was time to build up the touring bikes and go test them out in relative civilisation before we go to India with them. So tomorrow we are getting a train down to Marseilles and then cycling along the coast to Nice and catching a ferry over to Corsica where we will ride around for a week before we come back. Not sure why Corsica, but it looks a very pretty island and is suppose to be brilliant for cycling so that was good enough reason for us.

Today was very hot. Around 30c ish, I have not had my hair cut since the wedding and it is getting a little long and shabby. I am sure most of you are well aware of my phobia of going to hair dressers in the UK, so imagine what it is like for me out here in France. I kept on waking up in cold sweats after dreaming of coming out with rat tails or mullets etc. So there is only one thing for it. The wife.

She went and got her computer out, watched something on Youtube, and then said she was ready. I was very scared but grateful of not having to go to a froggy snipper. I am not going to post up a result picture, you will have to come back and see the up dates later, but I can say that I am happy to report I do not think I will ever go to a hair dressers again. I knew there was a reason why I married her.

We shall be back in 10 days or so time, so till then stay, away from hair dressers!!
