I tackled a jogger on Clapham High Street It was heroic Passersby blew kisses at me The jogger was none too plussed I don’t know why. If you’re not old enough to vote don’t expect the respect of your local MP. I continued onto the constituency office.

Definetly a place to see when visiting Kihnu. Only around 5km from the port and really swift journey with a bicycle.

A must visit place when visiting Kihnu island. The entrance ticket costs 5 euros, coffee and ice cream available at the ticket desk.

Château du Lude

The Château du Lude is one of the many great châteaux of the Loire Valley in France. Le Lude is the most northerly château of the Loire Valley and one of the last important historic castles in France, still inhabited by the same family for the last 260 years. The château is testimony to four centuries of French architecture, as a stronghold transformed into an elegant house during the Renaissance and the 18th century. The monument is located in the valley of Le Loir. Its gardens have evolved throughout the centuries.
