….so much so the French closed France!? So we’d done all the activities on our to-do list and decided to head (quite literally ) in the other direction for a potter in some pretty towns. The first seemed eerily shut so we came closer to home to find yet more shut shops….some sort of french holiday….any old excuse!! Richelieu did have a lovely antique market on today and Daddy bought himself a herb grinder which is in fact a coffee grinder but serves the purpose! We stopped off in the square for refreshments and lovely sunshine!
Our plans to casually collect bread (to accompany soup this evening), milk to cover breakfast and pudding were somewhat scuppered but the shut-ness of France! Thankfully Mike & Glynis were more than obliging and gave (would not accept money!) us bread, milk and wine! Just had our dinner and could SO easily spend another week here in this gorgeous place! How we’re going to convince Bea to leave her beloved “holiday house”, “holiday friends” (Mike and Glynis), “holiday bed”, “holiday bath”, “holiday car”….I could go on! Just about to start our evening card games and polish off the last bottle of vino!
