http://loirevalleyexperience.blogspot.com/2012_05_01_archive.html

Sunday, 27 May 2012. The man who would not be king! The Chateau de Cande, which has its own unique fairytale look, will not be on most Loire Valley visitor's 'must see' list but I think that, for British and American visitors especially, it should be! Wallis Simpson came here to escape the. Harassment of the press who were making life very uncomfortable for her where she was staying with friends in Cannes.Her friends were also friends of. The wife of the owner Chateau de Cande. The library of the chateau...

a very grand pressigny: October 2014

http://averygrandpressigny.blogspot.com/2014_10_01_archive.html

A very grand pressigny. October 22, 2014. Today is a BIG DAY for Nick. One of the main criteria when looking for a bigger house in France was that it had a garden big enough to require a sit-on mower! On Monday Nick cut the grass using the ancient heap of a petrol mower left behind for us by the previous owners. It was kind of them to leave it but it was hard work to use. After an hour of heaving the thing around Nick had sore wrists, a sore back and I had sore ears! More of the same Garden. As the conve...

a very grand pressigny: July 2014

http://averygrandpressigny.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html

A very grand pressigny. July 25, 2014. TWO WEEKS TOO LATE. The next house we saw had nothing much to either recommend it or not. It was an ordinary bungalow in an ordinary suburb. There was nothing much wrong with it, nor anything very exciting about it. It’s the sort of bungalow my dad would like and that we might like ourselves when we’re much older and want a house that’s easy to look after and maintain. You could even walk to the shops for a baguette. It was just a few thousand euros above our price ...

http://averygrandpressigny.blogspot.com/2015_04_01_archive.html

A very grand pressigny. April 18, 2015. As soon as the kitchen floor was finished we moved back in amongst the dust and chaos to begin the next phase, which was to board over the remaining walls and fit plumbing, gas and an electricity supply, ready for the imminent arrival of the kitchen units from the UK. At last the delivery arrived but when the lorry driver started unloading the pallets containing our beautiful brand new Magnet units I had a feeling that something was wrong and my heart sank. Insuran...

Back in England we have a small wildlife pond which takes care of itself for most of the time but every now and then it needs a bit of a clear out.

Art and all that stuff. Art and all that stuff. Autos - Motos Rétro Page. Richelieu Cape and Epee 2012. Art and all that stuff. One or two people have been kind enough to comment on my art work recently. Because of this I've decided to dedicate a page of our blog to it, with the idea of selling some of it to supplement our pensions! There is much more on my Art Blog 'Spangledust'. If you like what you see there is more on our web album. First, here they are on the beach in their 'raw' state:. As with the...
