What can I say, the photo of the stairs in house 1 was possibly the only good bit of the property, and that was only to first floor level after which the stairs sloped away as far as they went up.
Not to be put off though, the agent had another property just down the road which he thought may be suitable.
45 minutes of driving later and we were at house 2, way up on a hill with the most fantastic views for miles. Size wise this house was good as well, the downside being that the stonework was shoddy and the end wall was falling away from the house.
I've attached a picture of a place we like however it was not for sale, it was a bee and ant farm which the kids thoroughly enjoyed going round.
Anyhow, our adventure continues. We're in a town called Pontivy "sounds like it should be in Wales" where we have checked out loads of estate agents and also found a cyber cafe. We spent last night adjacent to Lake Guerledan. As is becoming all too familiar at the moment, it rained most of the night which, on the brighter side, kept the flys down. We have witnessed some sunshine today which is good and hopefully the turning point for this poxy weather.
Our trip is going to take us back up towards Calais over the next week so that we can Rendevous with Adam on his school trip. Until the next installment, love us, xxxxxxxx
