A few days before we were invited for an 'aperitif' with a friend in Condom, but this turned into an impromptu birthday party with cake and bubbly - lovely surprise.
Went away for a long weekend walking, eating and drinking. Great walking country around here. Birthday was blisteringly hot but managed a morning walk followed by a 2-hour lunch in a village bistro. Very nice lady who served us wanted to talk so good practice.
Had a quiet birthday evening but with bubbly, a good wine and even a cake! The postman had found our postbox so thanks for the cards.
As far as the house is (not) going, we're all waiting for the company to put the piles in. They keep giving a date and then delaying. So house may not go up till August.
We do have water, electricity and a phone line in the barn and should have the internet running shortly. Will post more news when there is any.
