That pic of my potential summer Office is just south of Clamecy, so on the northern edges of the Morvan area.

Last time we were there a couple of years back now we stayed in a gite north of Clamecy at a place called Mailly le Chateau right on the banks of the river.
Must be a Tiger 800xc thing. Been a few times now to Burgundy but hopefully this year, virus permitting, we'll be in Limousin, Anjou and Brittany.

Easy, Carré Les Tombes. I actually guessed that before I spotted the name of your JPEG , honest :lol:

regular stop for us after a day out in the Morvan, the chocolatier "Carré de Chocolat" does monstrouous waffles on weekends during the summer, with a VAT of liquid chocolat that he wheels out fron ant simply drowns a waffle in and then lathers it with whipped cream...

UUUrrrpss... scusi :shock:
