Annie and Petes paradise

Here are Annie and Pete swimming with my Lily in the river
Salz next to their new home in Couiza; what a paradise.
Dinner in the garden was marvellous. *sigh.

Incidentally if you are wondering why the mighty Aude has
turned the colour of boiled tea, its because 400 tons of mud
tipped into it on Saturday at Saint-Martin Lys between Axat
and Quillan. It happened during a storm around 5.00pm
when a hill was dislodged. Mercifully no-one was hurt though
obviously the road was closed. Its since been cleared but there
are still restrictions; better check before heading out that way.
