Saint Marcellin
Perfect timing, sat here watching the heavens open. Michael, one of our guests, has just abandoned washing his car :-) Fortunately I've just finished mowing the lawns. Looking good.
Amusing incident this morning. One of the little girls staying with us was helping feed the chickens and the goose this morning. Geese produce prodidious amounts of pooh, and consequently the young girls foot skidded on the said pooh. It wouldn't have been too bad except that when she fell she landed face first in the rest of the goose pooh. She was fine and after a quick trip to her gite to get changed she saw the funny side.
Yesterday, we all took a trip to St Malo on the coast. Nice lunch on the sea-front and the kids went for a play on the beach and rocks. Unfortunately Hannah slipped and landed face down in a rock pool. Luckly we had a spare set of clothes for her in the car. I guess we should have seen it as a premonition.
Beer tonight, I could not stand to watch The Two Towers tonight. I saw Lord of the Rings last night and did not enjoy it at all. I felt like the little boy in the Emperor's clothes story. Could see why it was so good.
