http://www.sarahhague.com/2015/07/london-eye-fulls.html
St Bloggie de Riviere. Things French, life in France, general wittering and the odd rant. Thursday, July 30, 2015. The two months of summer here in Montpellier are the worst. It's too hot, and I'm tired of it. Fortunately, I missed two of the hottest weeks this year by going to England and Wales on holiday. Some people come south to burn on the beaches, I go north in search of heat relief. I found it too. I don't think it got above 20°C. Meanwhile, it was scorching ( caniculaire. We started the original ...

St Bloggie de Riviere. Things French, life in France, general wittering and the odd rant. Tuesday, July 07, 2015. Greece – What is really going on. I don't usually repost posts from other sites, but this one from NationofChange. Made such sense about what's been going on in Greece that I decided to copy and paste the whole lot. We know the result of the vote now of course - a resounding NO to austerity. Well done the Greeks! Frankly, there's not a lot to choose between Monsanto and Goldman Sachs et al.

St Bloggie de Riviere: Rambling Post
http://www.sarahhague.com/2013/01/rambling-post.html
St Bloggie de Riviere. Things French, life in France, general wittering and the odd rant. Tuesday, January 08, 2013. If the UK was in France, I'd go back. This is a completely nonsensical thing to say but I'm sure you know what I mean. I was mooching round Sainsbury's on Saturday thinking how much I loved the variety, the malt loaf, the sausages, the crisps, and in Waitrose the lovely white squashy bread, the variety and the ready meals (or was that M&S? I want to marry M&S ready meals). I admit, I'm a b...

http://www.sarahhague.com/2013/03/meet-ambassador.html
St Bloggie de Riviere. Things French, life in France, general wittering and the odd rant. Tuesday, March 12, 2013. Moi taken by a pro with soft focus and Photoshop. A couple of years ago. Meet your new Ambassador. Impressed? I know I don't look much like an Ambassador but that's because I haven't spent any years in the diplomatic service, but I have been living in Montpellier for absolutely ages. That, plus being a cheery soul (! As Ambassador, working together with another one, I help set up monthly get...

http://www.sarahhague.com/2015/08/is-gower-any-good.html
St Bloggie de Riviere. Things French, life in France, general wittering and the odd rant. Wednesday, August 12, 2015. Is Gower any Good? The Gower peninsula is the bit that sticks out between Swansea and Llanelli. My mum was born in Mumbles a few miles from Swansea, a picturesque village of Victorian quaintness, steep narrow streets, pier, lifeboat house, lighthouse, lots of pubs and a village castle. Perriswood Archery and Falconry Centre. Outdoor archery for kids? Oxwich Bay in the background. Meanwhil...

St Bloggie de Riviere: British Women Slouch
http://www.sarahhague.com/2012/01/british-women-slouch.html
St Bloggie de Riviere. Things French, life in France, general wittering and the odd rant. Sunday, January 29, 2012. If you have any thoughts on this, I'd love to hear about them. To start with, I never buy those books, mainly because I live in France, see French women every day and don't need to read about someone else's fantasy based on her own insecurities, and this is what it boils down to - insecurity. British women, I believe, are deeply insecure. Grandparents saw the failings of the child-centred a...

St Bloggie de Riviere. Things French, life in France, general wittering and the odd rant. Monday, October 10, 2011. Plein les Yeux - Giant's Teeth Mountain. View from hotel room. On Day 2 of our weekend to Mont Ventoux, we awoke to this view, a mountain of giant's teeth. Looking down, we could see this colourful blend of autumnal shades. The river was just on the side of the bushes on the right. Even pretty villages have to deal with poo. Our next stop was the Col de Perty. Where we afterwards separate f...
