triumphal arch

 Here's the glorious arch emerging from the side of the bathroom in the little house - which will open onto the gym. Honest. Stop sniggering.

And here is dear Sian taking photies at her Mums expo last night. Jill is in Carcassonne hospital and Tony is in Quillan hospital - not fair - but the show must go on and go on it did, to great acclaim. Despite the sudden turn in the weather there was a very decent turn-out.

 Regulars will recognise the garden of the Artoteque in Rennes-les-bains where many an interesting conversation has taken place. It is rumoured to be the very spot where the Abbe Boudet wrote Le Vrai Langue Celtique. 

After enjoying that event me, Ryan and Alicia, Ian, Kat and Pete were invited to dine at Leos. I have some lovely photos of him and he wont let me post them so here is a lovely photo of Pete about to burst into song, or something. Leo did his classic meal in the garden and was as ever the perfect host though his taste in music continues to , erm, lack something.
