Hello once again.

We arrived safely and haven’t stopped since! Our furniture has been held up but is due tommorrow. I am now using a computer without Broadband and with a French keyboard…both annoying but I am getting used to it.

Unfortunately, my initial buzz on arriving was tainted by the rumour and subsequent confirmation that there are outline plans  afoot to construct a huge golf course and 800 habitations in our commune. On checking the plans at the Mairie, it would appear, that if all was approved, we at Beauregard would have housing on three sides. So, I have arrived to find that I am now a NIMBY! Not sure what the French is for that yet. But, it is early days and we are hopeful that it will come to nothing.

Mum and Dad are pleased and relieved that we are finally here. It is strange to be part of a big family again but we haven’t had any niggles or arguments yet. The kids are settling in well, swimming, climbing trees, helping Grandan with all of the jobs, cooking with Nana and generally letting off steam. School is another month away so we are still enjoying our holiday.

Time to wrap-up. It’s taken hours to download just two pictures…..
