I spoke with my friend Ian in Hampshire on the phone today! His kitchen shop is sold; the new owner has taken over, and Ian is packing up, ready to move to France... on Friday. He has bought a house in a village in the Charente region and has been having work done on it for the last little while. So the time has come! The Irishman - Ulsterman - who became an Englishman, is now about to become a Frenchman! Bon courage, non ami! I'll be booking a week's holiday in the summer!
Here are a couple of shots of Ian's new home in a scrapbook layout. I love the old part of the house, just one room up and one down. The newer part is on a corner and has an odd shaped living room. It has a lot of character! I say all that as if I have seen the place myself, but I have only seen it in the photos that Ian sent me. Looking forward to seeing the real thing before too long.
So, all for now.
Talk again soon.
