Its been an exhausting day to say the least.

But, we are here and hopefully its for good and for our long term future. I spent the day making an arch widow for above my new front door and buying a few bits, including a satellite dish from Leclerc. This evening we have been putting in the cooker and a few bits and bobs to make it comfortable.

We still have to tile the floor and finish the kitchen, paint the Walls and seal the floor boards, an Oh of course tile the shower. A couple of weeks work should see to that.

With luck as he has promised M Janioux will start the roof next week on the Gite.

The weather today has been balmy. I hope spring is close now. What a contrast to a couple of weeks ago when the snow was here. Cold and unloved the house didn't feel like home.
