Hi Guys
Sorry I didn’t get chance to post yesterday – it was a mad, busy day! Work, doing the 'dad = chauffer' thing and shopping – I hit the sack really early.
Mother’s Day today! My mum and dad have come down from Derby ready for our trip to France – we need to leave home at about 4.00 this afternoon. We all went to church this morning – it was a great service again. I love this church; it’s such a loving community and also completely mad. We were making bouquets for our mums during the service.
After church we headed home and did the 'mum presents' with some champers before heading over to the pub opposite our house for lunch. As I speak Teresa, Chloe and my mum are all asleep (too much chardonnay) whilst I madly blog and pack.
We set sail at 8.30 pm from Portsmouth to St Malo. I’ll take my laptop and keep up with the blogging whilst I’m away. We’ve got a few jobs to do but should get some time off too. We are fitting a window in the front door because the hall’s too dark and sorting out the stair carpet. The bathroom is downstairs and you wake up the whole village clanking down the stairs for a wee at night! The photo above is the cottage from the front.

Had a chat to Amy & James in yesterday - thought I'd share one of the phtos on my lap-top with you - good looking couple eh?
Hope you all had a great weekend. I’ll blog to you from France tomorrow night.
PS Health is good at present, sore mouth is slowly improving. Thanks for your prayers.
