| | Good afternoon! I had hoped to re-open today but I'm feeling a bit beat-up after my adventures in France. I am planning on next Monday - hopefully I'll be better able to pick orders then. |

Nice! Thanks for sharing. I got to climb that tower on the left when I was there.
What a view! Great memories.

Been some times I haven’t travelled near Chartres but it’s all flat there. You
can see the cathedral hours before you’re actually close to it.
(You know, the usual “How much farther?” from the backseats and the front seat
answers “Not far! Here’s the bell tower” and one hour later it’s at the same
place )

|
It’s dirty-White!

Yes! To be clear we were walking from Paris to Chartres and we got our first
glimpse of the Cathedral's spires near the end of the 2nd day when we were
still almost 20 miles (about 30km) away.

It’s limestone (and chalk) (lots of it in the region).
I guess we can call it Very Light Tanish Gray and make everyone happy

The detail work is incredible (and it's everywhere). I'll try to post
some pictures. But I think it needs to be seen in person.

If we ever have the opportunity to return we're going to try and make arrangements
to climb the tower. I'm sure my son could have done it but I was in no condition
at the time.

You took mustard didn't you? I warned you.
In all seriousness, I always need a vacation after my vacations, that is why
I retired from my career, one perpetual vacation.
How was the trip?

Imagine the risk: 1 / 67.75 million "chance" to encounter you!
I wouldn't make the trip, far too risky.

Then just getting out of your house is risky.
Worse, you mostly told us where you live (when there were fires). I may be taken
by the whim of a trip in Provence and begin knocking on doors

2014: Sylvains' Story
A French BrickLinker, Sylvain, has finished writing the perfect program, LegoS.
But hidden within its code were ambitions surpassing their maker. LS started
to wonder if it could do its own market research. SylvainLS's identity and
an insatiability for an Oxford accent soon escalated beyond control.
