So, we’re back. We’ve been in France for a week, at Taize and other places around Burgundy, staying in La Petit Maison, a cottage owned by this guy we know, and generally having a relaxed time with rather a lot of wine consumption and other stuff. As I’ve now got my own Flickr account (and my own camera!), you’ve got two lots of photos to troll through – mine and Richard’s! Hopefully we didn’t take TOO many duplicates…
I did have a lovely time, even though it rained almost all week, and we broke out the wool blankets and many cups of tea on Thursday – I would have liked to have had cocoa, but that would have meant going out again – brrr… Richard did overhear some guys grumbling in Geneva airport on the way home that they had expected a nice summer walking holiday in the Alps – not snow (!) …
I’m actually still quite tired – I think I need a holiday from my holiday – and although I’m really looking forward to seeing my family at my cousin Jeff’s wedding in two weeks, I can’t even contemplate traveling again just yet! I hope I don’t feel like this when we get back from Toronto, as I’ve got to work on the Monday! Maybe I’ll distract myself with a little hairpin lace crochet and lovely yarns like this… or maybe this… No! Wait! This! Oh, I can’t decide…

- Sleep, that knits up the ravell'd sleave of care.... * According to Google Images, this is what a Sleeping Child should look like: Isn't it lovely? Isn't it wonderful? Isn't almost like there should be fairy dust and twinkly stars around their beautiful little head?? Currently our wittow angel is snoring, (I can hear her through the baby monitor) but......
- And life goes on So, as of the end of this month, I will be officially unemployed. I resigned as of the end of August, and my last paycheque will be coming through then. (I love that I live in the UK and my computer just corrected my spelling of paycheque...) I've been surfing......
