Mission Accomplished

At last, the terrace has finally been dug out and is now ready for the next stage which involves wood, hardcore and a spirit level. If you drink the spirit then eventually everything looks level well at least from the ground it does unless I fall upside down but that would be just too confusing. Luscious helped on Friday to finish the digging out and sorting of the stones/rocks that have been dug out in the last few days!

Today the guests that arrived on Friday evening have departed so its running around now putting bedding into the washing machine and cleaning up again. After two days of playing mine host and cooking dinners for four and socialising until 2am and then getting up to get breakfast at 8am I am going to watch the rugby this afternoon at a friends over a beer or two. Toulouse v Paris should be a good match as long as Toulouse win!!! So, off to hang out the washing on the Siegfried line and to wander off to the neighbours.... toodle pip

    Hey,
    I was wondering, have you read Peter Mayle's 'A year in Provence?"...
