Busy, busy, busy!
A busy week has seen me doing lots of that social meeting people type stuff!
In the previous post, Spanish guests, I detailed Thursday and Friday night's entertainment.
On the Saturday night, the Girlie drove us down south to St. Gildas des Bois to visit Trevor and Charlie who have a holiday home there.
It's non-stop; this constant whirl of social events in sleepy southern Brittany!

As you can see, they were excellent hosts, keeping us well supplied with red wine and cream cakes!
After an enjoyable barbeque, it was nice to sit and talk whilst Joshy kept himself busy on the Nintendo Wii!
Must ask Father Christmas to reserve a Nintendo Wii for me!!!
And then, after three social occasions in three days....
The Girlie persuaded me to come and talk to her gardening club!
They have a website here.... www.BrittanyGardenersClub.com
It wasn't quite as frightening as I thought it might be!
And the home made scones and jam were delicious!
The pictures here are of the peaches and apples in the back garden at La Coudrais.
As we've got my neice, Martha, staying for a few days, we might have to see what is in the garden that we can pick.
Meanwhile - back in the real world, www.KeithEckstein.com and www.BrittanyWebsites.com seem to be picking up visitors so it all seems good for the start of my new enterprise.
Below are some of the photos we have taken.
