Salut les Rosbeefs!!!
:D
Well here I am in France, shattered but good, at my sister Claire's, once more battling to get used to the fact that the a & q have been swapped, the m migrated & the whole of the numer lines which would be 1 to 0 give me this: &é"'(§è!çà
Oh yay!!! Welcome to the azerty keyboard & the world of lost punctuation & letters...
The sun rose this morning as we took off & Guy's got a pile of photos of the sky & clouds from the journey which hopefully 1 day I can retrieve from his O2 X3 onto my mac... If any1 has tips, do please share!
My nephew is more cute than ever & I am totally smitten. I'm sure he's the bestest kid alive! He was 2 yesterday & is already being funny & cheeky professionally. Claire & Joffrey have their work cut out.
I don't miss work but I miss my crew! At a lose end inside. I belong more than I ever have & it feels kind of odd but so very good. Yet I'm home, & amazed at the work they've done on the house over the past 9 months (oh goodness, no way it should be that long!!) & how great it looks. How different but wonderful. It's not the house I grew up in any more... It's not even called Bag-End any more (great sadness & mourning on that day;) but well...)
I went to the organic supermarket in St Etienne today. It's organic heaven for choice and I got essential: chocolate, cuppasoups and biscuits. I've also bought seeds. The plan is to get busy and grow some of my own veg... tomatoes, letuce & courgettes and a few others. We'll see.
Wow, I am tired... Jon & Hannah were marvellous & dropped my bro & I at coach station last night, coach left 00:30 & was too hot so I slowly cooked & barely slept.
à bientot!!
