15th November

Not much to tell about today. I am so tired! So I just pottered- getting myself settled into this lovely place.

Nice FaceTime chat with Jane B today. Jane worked on Cardiology in Leeds a few years back and so was able to give me some reassurance about things, which was nice. I never did hearts- I was always gynaecology and women’s health- midwifery etc.

Chantal who is doing the millinery course I’m going on next week has contacted me. She wants me to have a look at her website and give her some idea of what style of hat I want to make. She asked if I could bring some fabric with me from home for the main body of the hat. I said I had tons of fabric but that it is all in storage back in England so she has recommended a fabric shop in Tours that I’m going to go and find tomorrow. Very exciting!

Will and Tom are back from their trip to Belin today and a good time was had by all! I had to FaceTime them tonight though because I couldn’t work the fancy corkscrew here and knew they would be able to help! I didn’t tell them about Dad. I’ll do it tomorrow- and Rob and Amy too- let them have today still as their hols.

Bonne nuit 🙂
