Limoge and further South still

Well, great as Limoge was, I could only liken it to a city in the UK somewhere, congested, smelly, messy and totally uninviting. Jane did however locate some pottery to her liking and we have also resolved the issue of a present for Grannies 80th. We did find an aerial play park for the kids in Limoge which kept them entertained and wore them out for the day. Two and a half hours of tree climbing and aerial runways does wonders. Unfortunately this connection won't let me send you pictures of aerial kids but i'll put them up when we get a chance. We moved on from Limoge, heading South to Thiviers and then South again to Les Eyes sumfink or other. No doubt you'll find it on the map. Then today we went to Urzal to meet up with some old friends from round the corner in Lawn Close, Bridget and Tom. A very relaxing lunch in their Dordoyne residence saw discussions on property hunting, flooding, councils and other stuff. After lunch we moved on again and, after 2 bottles of red wine and a pint, I have no idea where we are. Here somewhere. The weather is awesome, finally like being on holiday however the Dordoyne price structure is not so appealing. All the property here is 100K more expensive, just for being here. Sophie Hughes, sorry to hear your holidays are boring, feel free to email Jane on janelar@hotmail.co.uk. To everyone else commenting, keep it up as it is good to hear from you all. PS. Happy 57th birthday for tomorrow dad, what more could you ask for but the best floods to date on your birthday. Hope you got the cards and chat to you tomorrow.

Hi again
Sounds like you have having heaps of fun whilst house hunting!

You must have forgotten but Granny said on the invite she wants your presence, but no presents, but not to worry I'm sure she will love whatever you have chosen for her!

Glad to hear your weather is good ours is "very changeable" and right at this moment it is chucking it down!

Do you get the chance to do any fishing? Tell Josh that Jan caught 10 mackrels yesterday and could have done with his help!

Continue to have fun.

Lots of love from all of us to all of you.
