On 27th December 2007, after travelling round France, we finally moved in to our own French dream. As well as having the memoirs of our travels on the blog, it is also an ongoing account of our new life in France.

House Party 2010
Thank you to everyone who has made 2010 another memorable house party. We are chuffed to bits that so many people travelled to party with us again, especially those of whom came long distances. We even had a new party animal from Israel!!!
The weekend seems to have gone without too many problems. I think the worst events have been one parking ticket, 11 euros, followed by one speeding ticket, 90 euros. I am pleased to say that neither were me. Sorry guys!!
We did also have an injury on the trampoline. Poor Kaye had her finger broken by a plaster cast! Not a good end to a weekend, especially after we had already made her poorly by feeding her pork!!! Fingers crossed, no pun intended, that she mends quickly. Big hugs from everyone.
The food went extremely well, chilli on Friday, lamb roast on Saturday and pig and paella on Sunday. Yummy. We managed not to run out of bread like last year as well, even though there are some big boys who do like their sandwiches. We couldnt do without the big boys though as we all need the eye candy to keep us going. You know who you are!!!
Everybody helped to make the entertainment for the weekend. David even dressed up for us and ran the archery tournament!! Noone was hurt during the event.
Despite the weather the campers all survived. The biggest two man tent was erected and apparently had 5 star accommodation inside. The generator was not required this weekend for the hairdryer! There were three campers though who chickened out and camped out in the living room. Apparently their mattress went down and blowing it up with the compressor at half past one in the morning was not a good idea. The hole was rather too large for a patch!!
Thanks everyone again and we hope to see all of you back next year, along with those people who could not make it. We did sorely miss a very good friend and hope to see him real soon. Take care all. xx

Sounds like it was another success.
Wish I could have been there. Looking to come over sometime next month with my mom. Haven't told her yet but that's my plan.
