La Vie en Rose: Merry Christmas
http://frayssinetsmiths.blogspot.com/2008/12/merry-christmas.html
La Vie en Rose. A happy life in France. Thursday, 25 December 2008. Happy Christmas to one and all! A very early Christmas morning for me. I don't remember being up this early on Christmas Day since I was a kid. Or was it when Jon used to have to work an early shift on Christmas Day? I've seem to have had a run of early starts for no apparent reason. Well, cats I suppose. Anyway, here I am with a bit of time to reflect on the last few days. Or so we thought. Until Jon and I, up early on Christmas Eve...

La Vie en Rose: Looking back
http://frayssinetsmiths.blogspot.com/2008/12/looking-back.html
La Vie en Rose. A happy life in France. Wednesday, 31 December 2008. New Years’ Eve – and time for a recap. This blog is in text only - to see the year in photos please visit : http:/ rosievie.wordpress.com/2008/12/31/2008-in-photos/. DIY seemed to have been then main topic of conversation – planning it, buying parts for it and decorating the ‘bedroom that would become a lounge’. We did, however, come across the smelliest woman in. In the supermarket on the way home again! The cats were packed off on the...

La Vie en Rose: Dark days and warm places
http://frayssinetsmiths.blogspot.com/2008/12/dark-days-and-warm-places.html
La Vie en Rose. A happy life in France. Thursday, 18 December 2008. Dark days and warm places. Not terribly unusual that I was up early this morning - the unusual thing is that it wasn't because the cats dragged me out of bed. Quite the opposite in fact. Figgy, who has been sleeping on our bed every night for the last week or so since we 'liberated' him from the cattery, was nowhere to be seen. He crawled in late last night and after a brief kneading of Jon's lap disappeared somewhere in the house and hid.

La Vie en Rose: August 2008
http://frayssinetsmiths.blogspot.com/2008_08_01_archive.html
La Vie en Rose. A happy life in France. Friday, 29 August 2008. And the winner is. I duly took my book selections along to the group yesterday evening and they selected one of the books I don't already have (of course), Alison Light's 'Mrs Woolf and the Servants'. We'll be discussing this one at the end of October, so I'm quite looking forward to reading it and seeing what the others think. Meanwhile it's onwards and upwards with Doris (see previous post) who I am getting to grips with, honest. The s...

La Vie en Rose: Snowed in
http://frayssinetsmiths.blogspot.com/2008/12/snowed-in.html
La Vie en Rose. A happy life in France. Saturday, 27 December 2008. LA VIE EN ROSE IS MOVING, PLEASE CHANGE YOUR 'FAVOURITES' TO. We had a fantastic Christmas Day. The sunrise was stunning that morning. Yesterday we had been invited to some other friends for the day. Mr and Mrs H were also invited and had kindly offered to drive us as it is at least an hour away. An hour or so before we were due to leave a light sprinkling of little snow started. Down at the main road, looking north we saw this. But look...

La Vie en Rose: November 2008
http://frayssinetsmiths.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html
La Vie en Rose. A happy life in France. Saturday, 29 November 2008. Seeing the light of day. Don't worry, it's not serious. On Thursday our builder friend arrived to start work on the Velux windows. We knew that it would be one day's work per window. He was still with us at 6.45pm on Thursday evening. This was the state of play on Friday morning. Luckily he had a better day and had completed window number two by 4pm. Oh no He wanted to finish it all before the rain comes on Monday. La Vie en Rose. Just a...

La Vie en Rose: March 2008
http://frayssinetsmiths.blogspot.com/2008_03_01_archive.html
La Vie en Rose. A happy life in France. Monday, 31 March 2008. True to his word, Jean-Jacques arrived at 9am this morning - ten minutes after the arrival of 6 tonnes of sand. The delivery man informed us that it was his brother who would be digging out the hole for the pool! We mapped out the pool plan and J-J decorated the ground with florescent orange paint. It began to rain, harder and harder. Jon and I retreated indoors. The digger arrived at 9.45, the rain stopped for a while . La Vie en Rose. The c...
