Hiya all
Well there’s rain, heavy rain, torrential rain, monsoon and Breton rain. As you can gather it rained all day Sunday; from dawn to dust! So, DIY beckoned, a bit of painting, some trim around an ugly cable and then, the amazing ceiling. The lounge has an old (original I think) planked ceiling that we’d always assumed was meant to be dark brown. After twenty buckets of dirty black water and half a gallon of bleach we revealed a perfect cherry coloured varnished ceiling which has transformed the room; not a bad afternoon’s work!
Monday dawned (and stayed) beautiful! First off we went to a local furniture shop to buy a long overdue new sofa. We’d furnished the place with all our old stuff originally and the ancient two seater was looking a little sorrow for itself. After this we had lunch on the Ville Close in Concarneau before spending an afternoon on the beautiful beach at Pont de Trevignon near Tregunc. Needless to say I’m a little red despite the lotion, they told me the chemo makes you more sensitive to the sun; they weren’t wrong! In the evening I gardened to prepare for Amy’s arrival – she flew in 3.00 pm. on Tuesday.
Wednesday we sent to Pont Aven jewelry hunting for the wedding (bridesmaids need matching stuff I'm told??) James and I don't understand!
Nick & Sarah arrive today, we've brought their tent and are off to put it up for them in advance of their arrival later this afternoon. We are looking forward to seeing them!
The diet continues to go well, not missing meat at all but craving cheese and can’t find soya cheese anywhere locally! Health is 100%, no swallowing problems, no reflux, no pain – Praise God!
Forecast is improving for next week which will be good news for Nick & Sarah who arrive on Thursday.
See ya
