Today is Paul's Birthday and so we had laid on a spectacular air display of balloons celebrating it. (well actually it is an event put on by a nearby chateau but lets not quibble).
Last week the Town put on a spectacular firework display from the basilica. We had the most amazing display we think it was better than the firework competition on Plymouth Hoe. The timing was perfect as we had friends and family visiting and we had missed two birthdays with our move.
The veg plot has had some work on it and Paul now has his leeks planted. We are picking tomatoes, beans and squashes already, thanks to the previous owners. The plums are ready for picking and we have grapes to pick so I will be jam making shortly.
We have had a couple of wet stormy days but next week looks to be improving again.
We are heading over to Monflaquin this week as there is a medieval festival not to mention the lovely market we discovered this week.
