Came home in time to get the apéritif dinatoire organised for Jean, Françoise, Juste, Joséphine and Lone.
Welcome to all of you out there who might be interested to know about life chez nous. Hopefully, some of you will have happy memories of the house and the village and for those of our friends who have not yet made it over here, perhaps this blog will show them what they are missing! Click on the photos to enlarge them and please feel free to comment. A first name would be great so we're not left wondering who "anonymous" is! À bientôt et bonne navigation!

A View and a Half
With another warm sunny day, Christian and I both took a day off from our commitments and put Mum and Jill in the back of the car and headed down the windy coastal road to Banyuls. Lingered there for a long time drinking coffee and gazing out to sea while basking in the sun. We finally dragged ourselves away when Jill finally managed to get out of the loo and zig-zagged our way up to the Coll. so far so good ..... astounding views and all was well with the world, that is until we tried to find something to eat. Either the earmarked restaurant was closed or there was nothing on the menu that suited my meat-and-two-veg Mum. Finally ended up the the Sancho Panza on the Figueres road which does ok food but has nothing going for it as far as setting goes. Still, what was I saying about not having it all and Mum did enjoy her pretty substantial duck breast.
