Renovations…
Breaking it to build it kind of day….
Unfortunately we have a leaking roof/pipes and wall not a sieve but a laundry room!
Which has caused a lot of damage into the main house so it’s time it had a new roof and the pipes imbedded in the wall removed and if need be replaced!!!

The job we have all not looked forward to has started!!!! 😱
Une Grande Velux à remplacement!!!!
Unfortunately all 3 were rotten and leaking so we had no choice…😥
The other 2 were considerably smaller in-fact one was just for roof access….
Day 1… demolition….

Not sure who’s redder moi or the ⛰️!!!🥵
Roussillon fab hill top village…
Caves and old mines 🔨 well worth a visit and only 50mins from home…
Good restaurants and lots of ice cream 🍦 …
Easy to park and not silly expensive..
If you have the means I would highly recommend it 😊

Even an app for the forest wildfires!!
The sky was 🍊 last night we thought a storm ⛈️ was finally arriving but it was the smoke from a fire in Drôme!!
Hope everyone effected is safe xx

Heatwave!!!!
Invested in a Woozoo fan small but back a punch…
Top buy as extremely quiet!!! Unlike moi 😂
Liked it so much I brought a second one ☝️
They even have a remote to loose and a timer what’s not to like??
So if you have the means I would highly recommend one! Not to quote a film much!!

BTW
It’s not always been the easiest of times!
Everyday isn’t perpetually rewarding it is normal life too.:
Washing, cleaning, paperwork (which takes me an age due to my language barrier)
bills and less frills atm but we need to find some activities outside the house renovations…
We could do with a break and not just to sort a house and do tip runs…(like last week)
Neals not had a holiday for a longggg time now which means nor have I but as I’m not earning any euros atm I am not in the position to say… I need a break!!
We had our first visitors last weekend which was lovely but the preparation was relentless in 40 degrees..
Ikea flat pack was Neals nemesis!! Housework was mine wondering why we did go for 2 bedroomed house…and Herbie dear old Herbie 12 this week & he ping balling between us being his normal spaniel helpful self… aka not at all of a help but tipping toward hindering heavily…
All said we love it here! Glad we took the leap!!! Now it’s time to find some fun activities and hobbies… Hugs to all
