Chateau Colombier: June 2009
http://chateaucolombier.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
The comings and goings at Le Colombier. See the main website at www.chateaucolombier.com. Friday, 5 June 2009. Ouch - the cost of a motorised pool cover. The pool cover is great - it's safe, it keeps the pool clean, and - most importantly - the greenhouse effect helps heat the water up, and stops it cooling down at night. So - it's got to be motorised. But you could almost buy a small car for the cost. Do you think I can start to charge visitors a pool cover motor service charge? Follow me on Twitter.

Chateau Colombier: March 2009
http://chateaucolombier.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html
The comings and goings at Le Colombier. See the main website at www.chateaucolombier.com. Sunday, 15 March 2009. First swim of the season. Pool at 15 degrees. So with a wetsuit, and upbeat music, I officially opened the swimming season. Managed 15 minutes. Can't be bad. Wednesday, 11 March 2009. Somehow I'm not sure that you'll be back everyweek. However, start a vegetable patch to grow your own potates - and the rest - and you'll soon discover muscles you didn't know you had. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Chateau Colombier: Alberto Contador en route to victory
http://chateaucolombier.blogspot.com/2009/07/alberto-contado-riding-past.html
The comings and goings at Le Colombier. See the main website at www.chateaucolombier.com. Friday, 31 July 2009. Alberto Contador en route to victory. It was Tour de France fever last Saturday as the Tour cycled past us en route to Mont Ventoux. As well as many shots of headless riders, and tarmac (why do cyclists go so fast? I guess it was a sprint stage) guess who I managed to snap cycling past Chateau Colombier? Labels: Tour de France cycling. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Follow me on Twitter.

Chateau Colombier: the theme of 26
http://chateaucolombier.blogspot.com/2009/05/theme-of-26.html
The comings and goings at Le Colombier. See the main website at www.chateaucolombier.com. Monday, 11 May 2009. The theme of 26. Sometimes you can land yourself in it following on from conversations with friends. Random exchanges and chats with Anne (during her recent wet and cold trip wine tasting to the Languedoc) means that I have set myself a challenge for food and wine weekends here at Chateau Colombier. Because that's the number of the department of the Drome. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Chateau Colombier: November 2007
http://chateaucolombier.blogspot.com/2007_11_01_archive.html
The comings and goings at Le Colombier. See the main website at www.chateaucolombier.com. Tuesday, 27 November 2007. One advantage of having a large home with an equally large dining room and dining table is that it lends itself perfectly to jigsaws! Not having to move them away when you want to eat - and lose crucial pieces in the process - there's always another room with a table that can serve just as well! Do they sort by colour? Or by topic area? Friday, 23 November 2007. Another stupendous meal out...

Chateau Colombier: May 2008
http://chateaucolombier.blogspot.com/2008_05_01_archive.html
The comings and goings at Le Colombier. See the main website at www.chateaucolombier.com. Saturday, 31 May 2008. A long time coming - and of course not without its traumas of planning permissions, heavy rain, etc etc. But here it is - and it's wonderful. Should be able to swim 9 months a year, thanks to its "greenhouse" cover. Come and try it! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Follow me on Twitter. Cake aux olives; lavender. Tour de France cycling.
