Hello All,
Well, we are confounding the forecast day after day. We go on line, it says ‘rain’, the sun still shines – it’s been beautiful (not boiling) but lots of sun and fresh air. We’ve been seeing our mates Nick & Sarah most days and enjoying some ‘pool time’ with them at their camp site – great slides! We’ve also been able to get a top up of Alfie time! Tonight we are joining them for a big family nosh up in Pont Aven.
Our friends Kam & Darshan have been with us for the last two days, it’s been brill to have guests we’ve been to Pont Aven with them and to the beach at Port Manech; taught Kam the delights of Rummikub last night – stupid addictive game! They’ve headed off to Calais this morning, hope they make their 7.30 pm ferry, it’s about 600 miles up the coast from here.
Needless to say that, as always, we are having a great holiday. It is particularly special this year after such a tough six months, we just love this place a real ‘home from home’.
Health is 100% perfect. No problems, issues, swallowing difficulties or pain – fantastic! Can’t believe I’m going to have to put my ‘well feeling’ body through chemo again in September but I suppose I must. I’ve stuck to my diet, no alcohol, meat or caffeine now for two weeks. Don’t miss them either (much!!!). Nut roast anyone??
It is great to have all three children with us, catching up on quality time with our Amy-Lou now she’s back from Aussie after two years. The air is thick with wedding plans and excitement regarding James Fokkens arriving in a few weeks time for the wedding – I’m going to be a father-in-law; hope I’m a good one!
We are getting excited about Aussie, especially our day out in Sydney which is planned for a week on Saturday with my cousins showing us the sites. Teresa is bracing herself for a 24 hour flight as she not a good flyer; fortunately she’s not joined me on the wagon so a double gin and tonic and two Prozac should do the job!
We are really missing all our Church friends – we won’t be around for another three Sundays and are getting worship withdrawal symptoms; our first Sunday back is September 6th and I’m preaching then.
Well the bathroom is now free for the first time (@ 11.10 am - bathroom hogging girlies) so it’s my turn and blogging must end!
See ya all
God Bless
