In what can only be best described as an unfortunate incident I have started by first serious travel writing holiday in a while with a broken laptop.

With by wifes laptop safely stowed in board Allegro I will not be even punctuating with a pink keyboard.

Creativity is ignited by such challenges and I shall do my best to drizzle a saucy sweet concoction on this page for the next week. All by using French keyboards, begging for internet access on the street and a healthy dose of Dragons luck.
