Morning, grey here but dry, a warm front coming through. Hope the lessons go well. We had a lovely walk in the Château park at Regniere Écluse yesterday, didn't see wild boar though they had dug extensively. Tried a new restaurant, excellent.
Meeting friends for a walk later.
Happy Thursday!

Aargh, not good.
I have been walking on the beach with David, Mary and the dogs. About to have lunch at the beach café. Then madrigals this afternoon where I'm hoping everyone will be happy with my transcriptions.
My sister reports she has got a diploma, see photo.

We had a walk around the château gardens at Regnière-Écluse yesterday, beautiful place and free to wander around outside. Now added to favourite walks list.

Good luck with the hospital, it's been improving so hopefully that's continued.
We're meeting friends and their dog for a walk late morning, I'm trying to get a few things done beforehand
Here's a photo of a bizarre house we saw yesterday, I love how they built a miniature version for the postbox.

Thanks! I love finding bargains at vide greniers, the atmosphere is jovial with the whole village out. I spent €8.50 and this is what I bought

Home and recovering from a whirlwind weekend. Lots to get done today and lots of memories to treasure.
I inadvertently joined a writing group after a virtuoso performance as a Victorian snake oil salesman at a workshop. What I lack in wordsmithery I make up for in bravado.
Happy hump day all!

Hi, late checking in. Ultra busy day but all went well. We helped several people at the repair stand, met up with friends from last year and from our local society.
As usual, I didn't take many photos, but here is one I was very taken with, such a splendid hat.

Steampunk Pride!

Good news on the work front. Skies looking grey and threatening, not ideal for Pride Day. I wasn't planning to parade, I'll meet up with the Steampunk Group afterwards.
As usual I'm behindhand with my creations, but here is the clock bag awaiting the final 2 screws.

I can imagine your growth exceeded all expectations!
The lace is going on in sections. I don't know if I photographed these before I started altering them. They were a cheap charity shop buy, uppers badly cracked but very comfy.

Only just managed to get online, BlueSky wasn't playing novelty this morning.
Another lovely day at Papplewick. Here's a photo from yesterday, me and @jonstackpool.bsky.social suitably underdressed for the weather.
Home now and ready to start a week of not working!
