Madame Brit in Bordeaux for last 21 years. More chilled here than over at the other place. Don't want to look back & regret the things I didn't do. Mourning the recent loss of our wonderful Pistache the cat 😻
Bonjour from Old London Town 👋! Spot the tourists 😂

O-M-G! Went to see The Devil Wears Prada at the Dominium Theatre last night! Loved it!

Unbelievable, fabulous, amazing - the music, the dancing, the costumes 🤩😍! See it if you get the chance!

This year's advent calendar treat 😍

@franglaise.bsky.social I couldn't justify a fancy one like last year's, too much to pay for (mainly due to OH's upcoming special birthday) this year. Hoping this less luxurious one doesn't disappoint!

Afternoon in sunny Bordeaux. New (to Bordeaux) boulangerie, The French Bastards - excellent 😆😋

Today's sky in sunny Gironde 😎! Mid November, currently 19° & fabulous!

OH was painting a desk outside but had to put it on the covered terrace to stop leaves from falling on the wet paint 😆

Bon samedi ☀️

Thank you lovely Belgian clients for the delicious chocolate 😋😍! Nice to be appreciated 😊

It's an old one (she's no longer with us 😿) but Pistache is fairly well planted here #Caturday

Reckon that tops my recent Elton John limited edition Marmite that friends brought over from Blighty 💖

My view early evening today, taking on a new listing near the Corniche de la Gironde. Mustn't grumble 😍

Beats my previous favourite out of office reply 😆

My phone provider being amusing - sms they sent on arrival in Blighty 😆

Team lunch on the terrace of Buckets Auberge in Montazeau today - can confirm it was a bit warm 🥵! View from the terrace not bad 😍

@franglaise.bsky.social found a female "Calvin" (Patti 😻) on a house visit today - crap photos, had to take them quickly as owner was there.

Merci Pays Catalan 😍! Fabulous week, first stop in Roses then back over the French border to discover the stunning Collioure plus Argelès sur Mer & Canet en Roussillon 😎

When clients-who-became-friends invite you to stay with them in their new place in Spain, it would have been rude to say no, n'est ce pas? 😍😎

Coffee & a canelé in the sunshine in Bordeaux today 😎☕️

Finally got around to picking up my attestation for the French exam I did back in May. Knew I'd passed but not the scores - turns out I did rather well if I say so myself (bit annoyed for dropping a point somewhere 😉!) 😆💪🥂

Timely advice for motorists at wine harvest time (when tractors rule the roads!) from the Gendarmerie de la Gironde. In a nutshell, watch how you drive, expect journeys to take twice as long & don't lose your temper.
And a little warning that accidents are always worse when tractors are involved 😲

Friends from Blighty brought us some Elton John marmite (presume it came out for Pride month) - gay friendly marmite, fabulous 😍🌈!

Sorry Action but no, I do not want to see advent calendars in august! It's 30° outside & I'm not in the mood to think about Christmas merci beaucoup 😲
August 26, 2025 at 2:41 PM
Gawd, how depressing the world has become. Idiots painting Engerland flags everywhere, the RW press demonising desperate migrants, Lucy Connolly reckons she's a "political prisoner", Rayner accused of having a property empire 🤦‍♀️. And don't get me started on across the pond, Ukraine, Gaza... 😔

Jazz & wine evening with friends at a château in St Emilion last night - perfect way to spend a summer evening 🥳😍

Our lovely friends from Blighty turned up yesterday with the requested marmite, chutney, HP sauce & crumpets but also went rogue & brought us posh Waitrose fudge, lots of cheese, a huge bar of dairy milk & lethal galettes pur beurre from Brittany, picked up en route 😋😍😲

@franglaise.bsky.social borrowed from FB - a multi-coloured Chonk with added ears! So cute 😻
