Wow! From the drive, to the lovely cuisine and the finale' flight over a fairy tale village was a heart-warming delight, as only an afternoon with two special friends in a plastic car with a Chihuahua could be. It's a pleasure to share them with you. Much appreciated...

Ahhhhhhhh pure delight as per usual Mr. Tim and Mr. Boo!!!! How I savor every moment of these sublime outings. I adore Tourrettes sur Loup but never so much as with you two for virtual company, forgive me, you three, not to forget the very adorable Twiggy the retired model who is much loved by us all. I must say that when you launch the drone to that angelic soundtrack my pleasure is complete. Counting the days til my Villefranche touchdown and until then living virtually with my delighteful posse. Thank you as always. P.S. The drive to Tina Turner's was delightful!!!! Thank you!!!

Tourettes-Sur-Loups is spectacular! The restaurant is a standout with the chef’s cuisine and the high price is offset by it being a three course meal: appetizer, main dish and desert. Absolutely decadent! Thanks for the video and the getaway to the mountains is the ticket in the French Riviera summer

Highly professional studio content. A decade ago you would have had to spend $10k + to rent a helicopter and steadycam to get those drone views, and you would have needed official approval for the risks and annoyance. Great job!

Loved the commentary on the drive there, and the food looked absolutely amazing! I bookmarked it on Google Maps for the future. 💕 Side note - I always check reviews and it’s a big turnoff to see aggressive replies from restaurants who are unable to accept criticism. Just ignore it, else it justifies the bad review!

Hi . Thank you for all your fabulous videos . Now I have a few questions which I would like if possible you might be able to answer . What type of drone do you use . When you have never had a drone before just by knowing the type someone uses is a guard to others. The other question is has anyone thought of mounting a small solar power unit on the roof of an Ami as a way of trickle feeding power to the batteries. bringing the cable down into the cab at the back and some how connecting to the power unit. ??? As a dog lover think that you have got the perfect "new " little dog .

Thanks Ian. There’s a link in the description to the drone we use. It’s the mavic mini pro 3 which is by far my fav. Light, simple to use and not noisy!
On the last night of that trip we went for a pizza and because it was red hot we left the sunroof open on the brand new 2.8 capri we drove there in. When we left something black jumped off the dash, my mate in the passenger seat was convinced it was a scorpion and vigorously stamped on it! We pulled over to find he had smashed his ray bans (which he had left on the dashboard) to smithereens!!!!

I have been at the Spelt a few years ago, and I absolutely recognise the enthusiasm I had with that experience. The curriculum of the chefs or pâtissiers is at the top, having been under the orders of Jamie Oliver or Nina Métayer, a new generation of cuisine heroes, promoted by TV programs. Even the table ware is made by Amandine Richard a top designer for restaurants.

Hi lads from Spain. I was watching something last night and it was directed by Tim Burton - any relation? After seeing Mr Boo's dessert I wondered what the waitress was going to put in her bra. I'm not really one for those meals that are a little bit of this, a little bit of that. Today we had somthing from the slow cooker - it included chicken, lentils, tomatoes, chick-peas, coconut milk and I don't know what else - it was quite delicious and being cooked in the slow cooker it didn't heat the house too much, especially as our temperature today is 38°. We can at least use our a/c for free since it is sunny and our solar panels are performing well.
