I love the link of his birth to our local Cathedral, in Apt, 84. His mother struggled to have a child and asked for relics of Saint Anne to be sent from the Cathedral to help her conceive and carry a child to term. It took many years, but she believed the relics were responsible for his birth

Dropped off some & headed to a favourite coffee shop for pre-shopping treat ... Hopefully this will get us through

Good morning, early start to drop eldest at the airport... Alarm set for 6.15, but we were awake at 5, waiting for it to go off ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ At least we've had time for coffee and porridge

It finishes in our local town on Friday and all being well, we'll be able to watch it in 2 spots on the way through

The man is a wonderful vintage find, I stumbled across him 40 years ago and he's been rather a lovely addition to the house ever since ๐Ÿ˜

Oh lovely ... We have an old lead one in the UK (an auction find from Hatherleigh, many years ago) and are slowly finding bits for the terrace here, to replace plants that just don't survive baking summers, and freezing winters ... We had been looking for one, for a while ๐Ÿ˜

It's always so strange ... Our cars are orange after the rain now, but the sky here is still white / cream with the dust

Little morning at a local VG, and it's nice to get back to squirrelling through boxes and around the stalls in little villages ... A couple more bits for the terrace found their way onto Fifi's back seat

Over the last few days, we've slowed down enough to start catching up on the time we went exploring Japan in a campervan... We love walking, but we chose a 'mad dogs and English men' moment for this one, up to the Torii Gate in the sky youtu.be/mtb6kgbnFKo

Less orange today (that's mostly across the cars and terrace), but a muddy white ๐Ÿ™„

Good morning ... Yesterday was a good day, friends became grandparents and after just under 2 years of process, a family reunification request has been agreed ... There were lots of tears and wine may have been drunk ๐Ÿฅน

We've started disappearing down the rabbit hole of looking at a second trip, next autumn, so will take a look thanks

Definitely not a day to wash the cars!

Ironbridge is wonderful and the Blists Hill old town. My dad was a foundryman and I loved visiting there, I still do as it brings back so many memories

It's certainly sand here, we'd been told to expect it and it's quite a layer
