Where did the last week go! Saturday was taken up viewing houses on behalf of the client who comes out this Saturday, a brief lunch with friends ( infact we arrived for desert!), and then a rendevous with the builder Thijs. Sunday was a day of house work despite 'not working' it was the first opportunity of the week.
Richard arrived Monday for a flying visit, it was nice to see him and here the news of his latest job.

We went to Fontaine de Vaucluse , where normally a natural under ground water source creates a torrent of water leading to the River Sorgue. This picture shows the source - rather dry- quite worrying really.
After getting Richard back to the airport just in the nick of time for his flight we had a lovely day in builders Merchants & DIY stores buying exotic items such as high pressure water cleaners! Today, has been a repeat as we are about to order the decking for our terrace and 'Enduit' to re render our villa. There are 3 key players in the building merchants market and of course we have to get the best price which means lengthy discussions with each. A french man does not know the meaning of a quick conversation!
