Nice weather again so a bit of strimming and weed and pest control to get the garden looking nice for the Summer. There was half-a-dozen mole hills in the croquet lawn this morning, so that has taken top priority.
I found out today from one of our guests where the Internet Cafe is in Dinan. It's a proper shop rather than the travelling WiFi commune thingy I mentioned yesterday. It's a little more expensive, 6€ per hour rather than 3€, but he said it was quiet and easy.
Finished tidying the hard standing area. It was really a by-product of my rock grading exercise for the fireplace. No more progress on the fireplace but now there is a pile of rocks in the lounge waiting for me to mix up some mortar. BTW using the door as a 'prop' from the wall didn't work out, as you can see, so I'll just stack 'em one row at a time.
Added a picture from the newspaper here, Ouest France 20th May 2004, regarding the school trip to Jersey last week. I've been a bit slow scanning the article cos I've got an old HP ScanJet 4s and I could only get drivers and software for Window 3.1 or 95. I ended up taking a digital photo on macro mode.
