Us in France: Friends to dinner
http://us-in-france.blogspot.com/2009/09/friends-to-dinner.html
Tuesday, 8 September 2009. I love having friends round for a meal - I love cooking, I love eating and I love seeing other people enjoy things I have made. Our good friends Maggie and Alan came round on Friday for a joint celebration of our 13th wedding anniversary and their 30th anniversary. They were staying the night as well, which meant that Alan could have a drink and relax. Mags and I drank champagne and Ian and Alan started with beer then went onto red wine. 8 September 2009 at 13:43:00 CET. Hi to ...

Us in France: 13 years ...
http://us-in-france.blogspot.com/2009/08/13-years.html
Monday, 31 August 2009. Unlucky for some, but not for me. It is our 13th wedding anniversary today. Where has that time gone. The weather today is gloriously warm and sunny, just like on our wedding day - ok, I know I am in a different country now. We are not going out for a meal tonight as it is Monday, and most restaurants are closed here in France. I am really lucky to have a husband who shares the same values I do. We have a similar sense of humour and like lots of similar things. Me, myself, I.

Us in France: Rainbow Bridge
http://us-in-france.blogspot.com/2009/07/rainbow-bridge.html
Thursday, 23 July 2009. Sadly my parents-in-law, John and Eileen lost their beloved golden retriever, Sophie a short while ago. One of their friends sent them this little tale. I cry everytime I read it, as I have lost 4 cats and a dog over the years. Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge. The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing: they miss someone very special to them who had to be left behind. You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally m...

Us in France: Misty Mitten
http://us-in-france.blogspot.com/2009/07/misty-mitten.html
Wednesday, 22 July 2009. Misty is now out of her cage and being let out of our bedroom. Actually, she hasn't been in her cage for a couple of weeks now. While we are in the house we leave our bedroom door open so that she can wander around the house, but not outside yet. Her leg is still weak and I think that she knows it. She tried to jump onto the kitchen chair the other day and couldn't make it. It seemed to shock her and she ran back upstairs! 22 July 2009 at 10:58:00 CET. 22 July 2009 at 11:05:00 CET.

Us in France: Holiday time
http://us-in-france.blogspot.com/2009/08/holiday-time.html
Thursday, 27 August 2009. What a lovely time we have had for the past 2 weeks. Ians mum Eileen and our 12 year old niece Jenny have been with us. The weather for the entire 2 weeks (apart from 1 day) was roasting hot with temperatures in our garden reaching 38 degrees. Needless to say we have been in the pool almost constantly. It was too hot to go on day trips, we would have just roasted, and in any case, Jenny didn't want to stray far from the pool! 27 August 2009 at 17:56:00 CET. Hi Maggie May, we hav...

Us in France: Photos at the Tour de France
http://us-in-france.blogspot.com/2009/07/photos-at-tour-de-france.html
Wednesday, 22 July 2009. Photos at the Tour de France. This is Juley and me waving like loonies at the Tour de France. The picture was taken by her husband Paul, and Ian is hiding behind us! Isn't it funny, we only live 10 mins from each other and would have never met if we hadn't joined the same book club! Juley and I get on like a house on fire and have a similar sense of humour. Every time we get together we have such a good laugh. We are so lucky to have such good friends over here. Me, myself, I.

Us in France: Mistys first day out
http://us-in-france.blogspot.com/2009/07/mistys-first-day-out.html
Saturday, 25 July 2009. Mistys first day out. This was a big day for Misty. She has been wanting to go out for the last few days, but we wanted to be around to 'supervise' her. Misty and I got up around 8am, she had a light breakfast and then . she was allowed out into the big, wide world for the first time in about 5 weeks. First of all she looked warily out of the door, as to make sure she was really allowed to go out. Then she took a step outside and had a good sniff of fresh air. So glad Misty is out...
