Diet commenced...

Yesterday I only had a red cabbage salad, baked potato, bowl of soup an orange and the usual bouteille de vin rouge, not all at the same time of course(well its a start) I love these lists, reminds me of Micheal White's 'what I did in the summer holidays' essay (he had jam sandwiches).

I have added a little search box on the right so you can find things in what is now turning out to be an enormous site. Which reminds me, I put 'Philomen et Baucis' into Google to see if I could find some information about the Musicians du Louvre production (currently in Valence - hi Ruth!!) and it brought up 6 pages from the entire web and the first was... yes you guessed it merrow-smith.org, so I suppose we must be careful what we say. (I can just see me getting sued by Micheal White).

Sounds like you are being well looked after Gemma, we also had a little Rioja imported by hand by Pete and Jan and the girls, and btw thanks for coming all the way up to see us you guys it was really lovely, we had a fun time. Pete I think you should see 'Field of Dreams' with ol' Kevin Costner its all about faith and second chances - 'build it and they will come' dont forget the church isn't the building (i know you know this). Jessica and Bethany send me your email addresses and I will send you your own log-in for the bloggy. lots of love to all j
