Ohoh...please for the love of god don't let me see when you eventually come to sell it.  If my last one had been a bit less rough I could have seen me keeping it a lot longer...

Love that colour too which wouldn't help the self restraint!

Im still awaiting more bits of history from the estate of the deceased former owner. Ive had a few pics, which show it passed the “patina” stage some years ago, and went right through the other side, hence the need for a complete restoration that it received…

Im assuming the hole in the roof is responsible for the entire interior being new!

Ferry looks quiet Mr Franks. Saturday nights are a good time to cross.

What an adventure!

A child friendly museum about the discovery, production of and varieties of tobacco products. Laid back, unapologetic and very French.
