In the afternoon Suzanne and I went to the garden centre to buy, what else but snowdrops. Eddie and Christian decided to pass ... they obviously didn't realise that there was hot chocolate and gooey cakes to be had. Still, hell mend us, we both wished we hadn't indulged once our plates were empty but by then it was too late. Fortunately, I had the chance to walk it off as I went along to see Marlene (my boss from Social Work days) and this time was able to say "no" to the goodies. Just as well as in the evening we were booked at Chillis on Woodlands Road for a curry. Not to worry, said Eddie "they're just tapas sized portions" and so they were but we had loads of them, all delicious! Well, no trip to Glasgow would be complete with out a curry and we can worry about the excess at home.
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!
