After many months of preparation, paperwork and emotional highs and lows we’re now on the other side of the world🌏
From nearly “frying” in bushfires we’re now wrapped up in scarves and beanies to avoid freezing. No, seriously it’s not that bad!!!
There are definite signs of Spring with masses of daffodils, snowdrops and crocuses/crocii??!! All adding a splash of colour to the very green countryside.

A few days in Ireland provided a welcome “horse fix” staying with my very oldest friend. Always a delight to see one of the up and coming Paulank youngsters out schooling.


Unfortunately we’ve now been stopped in our tracks by hefty head colds, which mean a slight delay in getting to France. Plans are to be there next week.
“On y va!”
Well done! Take good care of yourselves. Beautiful Autumn weather here!
Can just imagine Liz! Currently watching Cheltenham Festival on the telly😊
Well Sue and Chris, I am sure all this virus activity is greatly affecting your plans. I imagine you will not be going to France for a while now and who knows how it is all going to play out – so keep safe!!!! It will all blow over in due course but they are saying six months for it to pass down here!!!
Six months! I hope not Liz, but we will go with the flow.
So lovely to hear from you Sue and Chris. Hope those head colds disappear ASAP. Look forward to the next instalment. xxx
Thanks Robby, hopefully the worst is behind us! Onwards and upwards😊
Hi, keep an eye on Mr macrons speech tonight to the nation. We possibly are moving into stage 3 re coronavirus which will restrict travel throughout hot-spot areas… I wouldn’t want it to scupper your plans, but as lso you need to stay safe
Trying to keep abreast of hourly changes!
