Bonjour tout le monde. So nothing much has changed since January, but we will make the best of it. I have been enjoying some long walks in the beautiful local countryside with the dogs for company. It has been wet windy and muddy but walking along the country paths next to small wooded areas and occassionnally catching sight of deer has been great therapy. From time to time I have met up with a friend and been able to catch up and exercise (socially distanced) at the same time.

We have also been renovating a room in one of the outbuildings which we haven’t touched for 25 years. It has been a fun(sometimes) and rewarding project and will become our office for the business so I can co ordinate all our admin, equipement, bedding in one room instead of spread throughout the campsite and house. There is even room for a bit of gym gear in the corner to encourage us to get fit before the summer.

Thanks to too much eating and drinking there will be a few different’ plat du soir’s this season and perhaps some new cocktails and we are well versed on the local wines (what’s new?) So enjoy February and look out for the sun which I’m sure is just around the corner…
