I like Burgundy too, especially the Morvan area.

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:
