Renovation project - choc au pan - Monday 13th August
Had a late start this morning, after the nicest choc au pain
and raisin au pain, which I managed to ask for in French, I had wanted an almond
au pain but they had none left, I was soooo impressed with myself as I did not
use one English word, still sounded like a Sat Nav voice over, but the
pronunciation will come, or so I keep getting told.
Had another visitor, Theresa, she works at the restaurant
next door but one, when they are busy, her and her husband bought a derelict
farm a few years ago and moved over a year ago to live here permanently, they
still don’t have heating, so we are doing very well.
John and Andy spent the afternoon shopping again, I’m sure
there’s something going on at that shop as they can spend 4 hours there, Andy
has said that he never wants to go again and John has said its worse than
B&Q. Apparently most of the time
there is spent scratching their heads working out what they need and then
trying to find it.
The hot water still isn’t working quite right, so another
luke warm bath
Top tip
1.
Be prepared to spend a lot of time shopping for
materials, it can be difficult to find what you need. Compression Tee that
comes as one unit in England can be separated in France e.g. the olives, nuts
and compression tee’s are all in separate bags.
