le retour vers la belle France

I'm going back home today, staying over night with Gavin on the boat. It'll be good to see my brother and his wife on their boat and it enables me to set off early tomorrow morning to get home. I'm planning to drive all the way in one day - it's a 10 hour drive - but if tiredness intervenes I'll stay somewhere en route.

I'm anxious but looking forward to being reunited with the cats, though they are quite likely to treat me with tail waving disdain. I've got one more flying visit to the UK in prospect for my mother's 90th birthday, then it's back to Sainte Foy for months of serious decorating. I will probably go completely mad. Please visit.

  1. Hey Chris,
    Let me be the first to welcome you back to France! I'm sure Pepin will be delighted to see you again, he's always yearning for cuddles anyway.
    I am still in Bristol, I'll be back in Toulouse by the end of the week after a 6 week visit. Bristol is a nice city, and the weather hasn't been too bad so we were able to visit quite a few things. Of course I saw nothing compared to you, I enjoyed reading your blog!
    I hope to see you very soon, and you're always welcome to stay at our house in Toulouse if you ever feel like it!
    Anneline
