A message from France.

We have just come to the end of our first week and it has been one of un paralleled sunshine. The winds are a bit strong though and keeping the skies free of clouds. Julian has been marvellous and has put his Megane at our disposal while he cycles the four miles from here back to his studio in Crillon. We have been over to Sault and round the back (the North) of the Mont Ventoux. We have renewed our acquaintenences with places that we love and Julian took us to Chateauneuf Du Papes yesterday to a lovely lunch in one of his favourite restaurants. The two kittens are a delight and will not let us sit down without sitting on a comforting lap. It sounds as if things are hotting up on the Manoir front. We will be returning to IOW on 9th in order to get our car and return on 11th. So we will see you all there.Love from Mum and Dad (and of course, our host.) We loved the photo of les trois soeurs.
