Evans on Tour - Day 9: Large Doner

Out and about along the Loire today. The plan was to stock up with lunch supplies at the local supermarket . . . but ferme lundi. We found another and lunched at St Floret le vieil, which had some connection with Julien Gracq, one of whose books I had randomly purchased at a bookshop in Exeter. Anyway, a meandering loop took us to the Chateau de Serrant, but it was too late to do it justice so we headed off for an early dinner at a nice little restaraunt on the river . . . alas, ferme lundi. So off to Chalonnes, in the rain, which was quite ferme too except for a kebab shop so a large doner, chips and carlsberg it was - bloody good too!
