life in the Limousin

I was going to be posting a highly entertaining Youtube video this evening of Alfie, Matt and Laurent putting the granite top on to the fireplace that Alfie’s carved for Negrelat - but having waited over an hour for the video to download (at which point it was still only half way done) I accidentally closed the window so have had to start all over again. I can’t say that the action was particularly rivetting even at the time …..more scary than anything - but a reminder of why people nowadays use modern materials in building.
Instead some random photos taken on the dog-walk this morning….all a bit on the blurred side but that’s a hazard of the job when one hand is attached to a hound with a scent in his nose. As you can see from these pictures the weather was very mild again today. Perfect mushroom weather, although the cepes remain as allusive as ever.

A fantastic tree:

This is the fireplace….a prelude to what’s to come tomorrow:
