Bricquebec - en - Contentin (day 2)

Angela couldn't sleep during the night. Her body and head ached, she shivered, her throat was sore. Great! By this morning she also felt sick. Now we were both ill. The only thing to do was stay put and rest up in the hope we would both feel a little better tomorrow. What a trip this was turning out to be. Yesterday had been out 24th wedding anniversary, we would certainly remember it for all the wrong reasons. Paying another 13.5 euros for another nights stay, we lay in our tent willing recovery. The nearby fowl squawked and scrapped, the tiny bantams flapped their wing scurrying and jumping in a bid to be noticed. Angela has previous with bantams. When she was six years old she let some out of a cage in her mothers friends garden! There was also an incident with a tricycle and a pond in the same garden. Today feels like a wasted day, but we could not have cycled. Mid afternoon Angela went down to the nearby supermarket for bread, cheese and the all important breakfast pain chocolates. John has no taste, but despite this likes them with his morning coffee. Fingers crossed we both have a more comfortable night and can move on a little further tomorrow.
