This and That

I cannot believe it, 3 wins in 3 weeks!!!! That must be my share for the rest of time LOL. I am really thrilled to have now won Dolly Dimple as the third win. Take a look at Diane's (yes another one) blog at Heart Shaped. She has some lovely crafts and some amazing tours around the English countryside. I will show you a picture of Dolly Dimple when she arrives.


I loved this carved bear that I saw in a private garden in the Charente.  It looked so real as I drove past, I just had to stop and take a picture!.

Interesting barn at Cognac La Foret

Selection of cheese at our favourite restaurant in La Rochefoucauld. It's help yourself!! :))

These two Citroën Ami 6 were seen parked together in Chasseneuil. I had never see this model before, so I was quite intrigued.

Looking forward to next years crop of maize.....


Colour at the local market

When my friends from Ireland visited me last year, we saw a huge Sanglier (wild boar) cross the road in front of the car and race across an adjoining field. All far too fast to even think of the camera! I did this small sketch so you can see 'sort of' what they look like

Sparrows bathing in a pot stand; photo taken through the lounge window. In the warm weather, I fill this up with water several times a day!

If you don't like bugs and snakes stop here!!!

"Un serpent", seen while out cycling. I did identify this when I got home, but my book is in France and I now forget what it was, but it was non venomous.

Seen on my verandah; I guess his mother may call this chap beautiful!!!
