So after 10 months of being here, we now, at last, have a beautiful new website. It went "live" yesterday, and I am contacting everyone I know (and many that I don't) to tell them about it and get some feedback.
And I've just had the most sublime morning at friends Ali and Lizzie's newly acquired Mazet (see picture) - 10 acres of garrigue where vines, olives, cistus, aloe vera, pines, pyrocanthus, heathers and herbs abound... My mouth is watering at the prospect of the spring evenings we can spend up there with secaturs and Muscat Sec.
I'm off to Margot's now for my weekly dose of French conversation and sweetness which is the Margot experience.
And I've just the most fantastic idea... to make one of our apartments available year round for volunteers. We always have gardening, painting, fixing, refurbishing to be done, and perhaps there are lots of people who might want a free holiday (with food included) in exchange for skills and labour. Let's hope it takes off.
