And off we go!

France, here we come! We are off in a few mins for our two months at the cottage. We were planning on digging part of the lower field over to make a big vegetable garden for next year, but my darling husband cracked a couple of ribs two days ago so any digging will have to be done just by little me. Great timing, NOT! We almost had to postpone the trip, but I'll be doing all the driving so he should be ok.

I'll miss you all for the next two months, as we have no internet access at the cottage. I'll try and get to an internet cafe once n a while though. So, until the middle of September, have a wonderful summer/winter wherever you are.

Have a great time and hope your husband's ribs heal soon as I know how horrid broken ribs can be! Don't do too much digging yourself either! Hope you find an internet cafe and don't have too much difficulty with the French keyboards (I found it really hard to type using "look and poke" method!!!)

Hi Liz, I'm sorry to hear that about your hubby! Hopefully he'll be recovered soon. Have a wonderful time in France, sitting in your garden, visiting brocantes and strolling over the farmers markets with the most tempting scents of flowers, garlic, cheeses etc. The French ones are just the best, aren't they?
Hugs,
Julia
