15th September: Saumur

Neil:
I like to please:
I am very much a philistine when it comes to art
However I know Ceri loves it in all its many forms ….
So eager to please I find a beautiful chateau just 10 miles away beside the Loire .
It is the museum of contemporary art, that should be good in a place called Montessauro. We set off and methinks we can have a swim when we return.
We are all rolling along with a following wind when Ceri gets another puncture…yes it’s the back wheel again . Anyway it’s nice day and after lots of pavement kneeling we are in our way .
If anyone asks me to attend a ‘ Museum of Contemporary Art ‘ in the future I am not available. What a lot of ‘ Tosh ‘
There is me thinking there might be a bit of ‘ Dadaism’ or ‘ Surrealism’
But no…statements like this dominate the poor old chateau. It was very quiet ! We was robbed of €14
Still it made a nice day out cycling along the Loire. Swim beckons and a meal out

We passed the Greenwich Meridian
Another puncture
“There might be a scripture of space in which a certain contusion is symptomatically compressed; a face where a minute prophylactic valance is ordained by a tribal mercantilism of fear. It is a place where Humpty Dumpty has the flower of small adjournments in his entree.
It is
a grace of connivance and facetiousness, an omnipotent enemy of polemic safety. For some season it is an impotent face of acceleration and dismay. It is also a chase where commendation is ruled out by parasol.”
The outside of the Château de Montsoreau-Museum of Contemporary Art was beautiful!

Then back to our beautiful hotel in Saumur…
