Life on a French Roller Coaster

May 24, 2022

To begin with, huge apologies for not having posted for such a long time. To be honest, I’m not sure really, where to start with this post, as it’s been one that I’ve started a few times over the last couple of months, only for life to take another lurch, in a slightly different direction … More Life on a French Roller Coaster

Returning to the first signs of Spring

March 8, 2022

Apologies for not having posted for a while, but since Christmas, it has felt as if we have been on a bit of a roller-coaster ride with lots of switchbacks & changes of speed and direction in just about every aspect of our life, but all we can do is hold on tight, and hope … More Returning to the first signs of Spring

La Maison Basse, Art and Design in Lacoste

November 15, 2021

From time to time, you see something that makes you reconsider some of the decisions you’ve made in life, and a recent visit to the SCAD (Savannah College of Art and Design) Campus at Lacoste, was one of those moments. It was the first stop on our day with the local Tourist Board, and although … More La Maison Basse, Art and Design in Lacoste

Making our house a home

May 10, 2021

It’s all been a bit busy, since Andy arrived back, and it’s hard to believe that nearly 12 weeks have passed already. Of course we’ve been back out on the bikes… And enjoying some wonderful long walks too, watching spring start to take hold….. But in between times, we’ve been busy doing lots on the … More Making our house a home

Stepping back in time at Simiane

February 20, 2021

If you are a regular reader of the blog, you will know that the  Boulangerie at Simiane-La-Rotonde, just across the border from us, in the neighbouring Department of Alpes de Haute Provence, is by far our favourite. The Boulangerie itself is worth the hour long uphill cycle, but it’s not the only attraction as the … More Stepping back in time at Simiane

Winter arrives in Provence

December 22, 2020

Since arriving back in Provence, it has felt as if someone has been playing with time … I can’t quite believe that nearly two weeks have passed since Tom and I drove back. It is more like moments have passed, than days, but at the same time I have the sense that I have been … More Winter arrives in Provence

Back to Provence for Christmas

December 13, 2020

I have almost given up expecting that things will go to plan, especially this year, and this week was another case in point. It all seemed so simple – Tom would finish his online lecture with Uni at 3pm on Tuesday, by which time the car would be loaded, and as soon as he finished, … More Back to Provence for Christmas

Enjoying winter days, and a bit more work

December 4, 2020

After all the work that Andy has managed to get done over the last couple of months he has finally felt able to relax a bit and enjoy himself this week. That’s probably a bit unfair, as it suggests that he hasn’t enjoyed himself whilst he has been doing the work, which isn’t the case … More Enjoying winter days, and a bit more work
