Magnifique!

As you are probably aware, a few days ago le Tour de France was in the UK Not just anywhere in the UK but, for at least some of the time, in Yorkshire. My 'bit' of Yorkshire to be precise. Yes, the le Tour came to Sheffield! And not only that, it came within a few hundred meters from our front door. This was incredibly exciting - from our own personal perspective - for a number of reasons... It isn't often that a massive sporting event almost passes by your very own house - we even had 'official' tour bunting strung along our street! It was a real opportunity for the whole family to get involved in the fun, not least the making of decorations - we may have gone a little overboard...(see photos below!!) The local community embraced the chance to celebrate the event together. From the annual festival in the Park extending to run over two days in order to become a le Tour Spectator Hub, to the gathering of local residents to watch the screen...
