Patrimoine
Patrimoine …or heritage, as it was celebrated this weekend in France, we took a trip to the Ecomusée in St Cyr la Rosière. After the museum and its collection of objects, images and documents illustrating traditional Percheron life, we had a look around the exhibition “Bien loin de Brooklyn” by American photographer Peter Petronio (myContinue reading “Patrimoine”
Just because …
Just because it’s Monday … bonne semaine à tous !
New routine
With everyone back at school (the youngest starting for the first time – gulp!), it’s time to get into a new routine. On a sunny September morning, that routine really has to include time out for a walk along the Voie Verte before heading back home and sitting at the computer all day.

Still she haunts me, phantomwise, Alice moving under skiesContinue reading “A Boat Beneath A Sunny Sky”
I do like to be beside the seaside…
Sur la côte anglaise, même les lampadaires portent leur petite laine! Allez, on va au moins tremper les pieds! C’était au bord de la Mer du Nord un mois d’août. Quoique … en Vendée, une semaine plus tôt, ce n’était guère mieux …. The North Sea seen from Lincolnshire, the Atlantic Coast in France …Continue reading “I do like to be beside the seaside…”
