A life without is like a sunless garden when flowers are dead.
The consciousness of loving and being loved
brings a warmth and richness to life that nothing else can bring."
Oscar Wilde

  11. This is Pet again. You are so kind about my blog and offering your help dans le Perigord too.
    Last time around, 3 years ago, we stayed with our 2 boys - now 10 and 8 - at le Manoir de la Brunie in Le Coux-et-Bigaroque. The boys, and us too, got very well with Marie Cristine and her husband, the couple in charge of the place, and spent some lovely days even playing cards with them and everything.
    But next time we'll make sure to let you know.
    I do love to mix languages too, one of the pleasures of life :-)
