I'm off
Well more or less. This afternoon and tomorrow I'll be washing, drying, ironing and packing. I've got to go shopping as Dom and Bonnie will be playing house while we're gone and we have to go into town for Rob's insurance on his new phone.

I'll be back mid-July

This is a very hot weekend indeed
35°C yesterday afternoon, even the breeze was hot. This is why my garden dries up. No splashing in the pools because they can't be topped up. In the village it is the annual Brocante (car boot sale but more sophisticated) it's held in the park, I feel really sorry for the people in the middle of the park with stands, no trees for shade. We stayed in all afternoon and watched a Columbo episode and fell asleep. Even the evening walk was not as refreshing as it should have been.

As Paris is candidate for the Olympics in 2012, La Rochelle would also involved in the sailing events. What do you think? Should monuments like the St. Nicholas tower be dressed up with neon? 

This was my dessert. Nougat ice cream with summer fruits. You wouldn't believe how nutty the nougat was! 

Rob's dessert 

I don't know why I am to one side. Rob didn't want to include someone at another table perhaps? 

Twenty years already?
Yesterday was our twentieth wedding anniversary. Rob had a day off so we spent the morning in town, he needed to change his phone and then we went for coffee. In the evening we went to out favourite restaurant, The Four Sergents, for a meal. It was lovely, Olivier came with us. Needless to say, the men folk talked phones quite a lot. I chose Mussels in lime sauce and then I had fish with corgettes, it was perfect. When I get the pictures I’ll post them so you can see my dessert. After eating we went for a walk on the port, it was so warm a lot of other people had the same idea.

Shouting very loudly "DAISY!"
All I get is a black screen when I visit your site so I can't put a comment and I can't find your e-mail address.
