I would like to start by apologizing to all the people that we were going to email. Unfortunately our IT hasn't been as we were hoping. Firstly, our internet connection in our appartment in Paris was not working and secondly, now that we have interenet connection, we are unable to send mail out. We can receive but not send. I will have to contact our friends who are in Geneva to help us work out the non workings of mail out. So for now this is as good as it gets.
Talking about as good as it gets - we have just spent a beautiful afternoon wandering around the town of Bergerac and then sitting in the sun having lunch. Lunch, for those who are interested, consisted of duck terrine, steak frites (steak and chips), and chocolate crepes all washed down with a few glasses of the local rosé and an café to finish.
We are now back at the grand house of our friends. Peter has gone for a run around the vineyards-we are smack bang in the middle of them. I am writing this and watching the last rays of sun sink down over the valley and vineyards. We are enjoying the sun and the warmth while it lasts. It was very, very cold when we were in Paris and I am sure it will get colder here over the next few weeks.
Its time to start thinking about dinner (of course). I think just an omlette with some delcious local bread and a glass of wine. Until next time - au revoir.
