    @D0rdogne_Damsel   Holiday Let?  We're only allowed to travel within a 10k perimetre!  
    A good hoeing is worth two waterings.

  • Someone needs to tell the French about that @tuikowhai34, I have seen so many 2nd homes opened up and car registrations from all over the place.

    Morning folks another glorious day hah beat the phone! It typed a chlorine day,got yah! Hope heads and backs are better.There was a frost gone by 7.Now lots of you know the saga of selfish neighbour,who makes purple sarky comments,oddly enough,only when the old man. is there,well I lost it, with him!He asked the old man about putting sweet peas out,I went over,he started on, I said to the effect,if you are just going to be stupid, sarcastic, don't bother to ask my advice,I said MORE as I stormed indoors, almost in years.Olf man rushed in,did the veg, said it was only banter I shouldn't take it to heart, easier sat than done.Some things are really hurtful.There I am barrowing shingle,he has a little pink fluffy wife,who is not expected to get her hands dirty.Put up with it long enough,he probably didn't hear what I said,or thought I was talking to the old man

    DD I am always getting caught in my pj s,are they French, didn't think you could travel for holidays
  • There were French @Nanny Beach. Unfortunately, it seems there are a whole lot of people out there that seem to find a way to get around the rules. It does make me wonder how we are ever going to get out of this current situation. With my restaurant having now been closed for 11 out of the last 15 months I find it very frustrating.

    Morning all.

    No wonder France has the highest figures in Europe for Covid cases and new cases every day.

    Mild frost this morning, sunny.

    These morons are everywhere,yet, will be the first to bleat if we get a third wave and another lockdown.someone put a video on Facebook ofashopping mall, teens twenties no mask or distance,I put this, some people agreed, some were rude,we were miserable,far worse, obviously don't have a life enjoy being lockdown and wishing me illness.Those who know me on here,I have 2 disabled sons,90 minutes away,I bubbled with youngest daughter,look after grandkids, got them now.No I admit my lockdown life is as busy as usual.I hate clothes shopping,all shopping and don't go away, rarely go out

    Good morning all, sunny but cold at the moment. It is very frustrating to see people taking no notice of the lockdown rule of 10km, and the curfew! I am trying to make a hospital appointment but have been told because of Covid they are not having RDVs and to call again in May when they may have sorted themselves out! I have Salvias and Agapanthus to divide and find homes for, I hope OH won't be far away with a small saw.
    Have a good day everyone.
  • Morning everyone,
    Thank you all for your kind words, like we have all said, pets are part of the family and it's always difficult when they leave us. I appreciate all of your thoughts xx

    Well my seeds are outside and romping, need to do some potting on this weekend which will be good fun, tomato hanging basket planted although still being brought in at night as plants are still tender, and the herbs are doing well. Need to do some propping up of plants and some mulching in the front garden as well so lets hope the sunshine holds. It's meant to be nice down here so fingers crossed. 

    Mum and Dad are off to the GC today - I said to them just if you see something you think I will like then buy it - I'm not sure they will indulge me sadly!!!
    Dolce far niente....

    Hi all

    Lovely sunny day, but very cold and another heavy frost last night.

    I was out wandering round earlier when a Stoat ran across the lawn, only about 20 feet away, lovely sight.

    I have to go shopping at some point, need a new suit for a wedding and I appear to have grown out of all my others [ maybe they have shrunk ] Really not looking forward to mingling with crowds.
