This week we have at last had some rain, fairly sertious stuff actually, 100 millimetres in 48 hours - that's 10 centimetres - so yes I have to admit , it does rain in Provence!



It has actually been nice to spend time in the house getting our website sorted and adverts for the villa on various holiday websites.We have also been back to Avignon to order our kitchen which is scheduled to be fitted May 5th!




Despite the rain Thijs has only lost one day so I sent Karen to sort out the lack of activity!Thijs calls Karen 'the Admiral'.

This is our dining room ceiling, the beams are added and then it is shuttered with plaster poured betewen the narrow joists, creating a true Provencal ceiling.


Of course we have to white wash the timbers which are yellow as a sign they have been preserved.

This is from the lounge going into the Dining room.



And the Gites are going up!
