Bobby's Birthday/ We leave for Barcelona

While Bobby was having a shower for the first time while being 22, I filled our tent with balloons and lit a candle on a little birthday cake for him. Aren't I just a dote?However, unfortunately we came to realise that,

 candle flame+ballon= BIG POP + cake drop :/

We ordered a taxi for 1pm at the tourist office, but apparently when they asked us the destination of our journey (train station) and the location of where we wanted to be picked up (tourist office) they somehow thought that we meant the tourist office next door to the train station, and not the one that would have made sense which was about a mile away.. We called the taxi rank at 1:05 to find all this out. They couldn't believe that we actually meant the tourist office about a mile away from the train station, and not the one that is situated literally in the building right next to it.. They said that they'd send a taxi to us immediately. We waited another 25minutes but one didn't come. I called loads but they kept blaming it on the traffic the Tour De France was causing. 
We made our escape out of Argeles on a train/bus, but unfortunately we still missed our train by 20 minutes..
