Cat on the tiles

Here we are again, saturday and it is a weekend. It is supposed to be a day of rest but not for me. Tiling needs to be done, this is a view from the lounge into the kitchen showing how much i have still to do!! The cat has decided to oversee the whole operation as it means that once again her domain is changing and she needs to be kept up to date with things! I had to move the chair as it was in the way but she didn't even move just watched me then rolled over for her stomach to be tickled. What a life eh?

Today has been absolutely gorgeous..39° in the sun on the terrace and 20° in the shade at the front of the house and i missed most of it as i really want to get his tiling out of the way. About 5ish i finished for the day and had a cup of tea and then it was time to check on the toilet system to see if any more compost was ready so that it can go on our new garden area to help the vegetable plants that are now in place. The herb garden has now been started as well and all i am waiting for now is Ally's plant to arrive and it will all be complete. The rhubarb has gone completely manic after spreading some of our compost around it and tomorrow i shall pick the first 4 leaves of the season and make a rhubarb crumble.. oh bliss all covered in yummy thick custard..hmmmmm
I have next week off from the plastering as plaster man is on holiday so i have a week at home to work on the house.
Last Sunday evening i was out with the band taking part in an ancient festival where the last man to be married in the village wears a horn on his head to represent a unicorn and goes round the village chasing the young women!! He doesn't catch any but if they manage to touch the horn then they are supposed to get pregnant soon after...ancient pagan fertility rights in a catholic country condoned by the church...bizarre but then this is countryside france and long may it continue.......
