c'était une bonne soirée


A friend of iain's had rented a house at Alet for a week, keen to see our beautiful region. But all was not well. The house was tired and the weather atrocious. With 2 teenaged twins and nothing to do on a wet day (every day!) it was not a dream holiday. So he asked them to come to us for meal and to try and give them at least one fun night in their holiday. It was fun. Ingrid is an artist, working with glass, (http://www.iglassdesign.co.uk/) so she was delighted to meet Vanilla. John is university so Bob and Pete were good for him and the Bowyer children seemed to get on with the 2 young Phillips, even managing a darts match out in the rain. All very jolly. Had it not been so incessantly wet, we could have invited even more fascinating people for them to meet. Oh well, next time. Thanks to those we could fit round the table, for the damp holidaymakers meeting you all was the highlight of their week.

My photos of the evening are rubbish but the wisteria is coming out!
