Another productive week this week but has been a great mix of work and play. The weather was much better than it has been in previous weeks and allowed us to get back to work on Grange for a couple of days but I also managed to tick off a number of other tasks that…

As I wrote last week’s blog I spoke about hiding inside sheltering from the wind and how it had already blown down a couple of branches in the orchard and that I hoped we wouldn’t suffer any greater damage.  Prophetic words … While in the UK we missed any disruption from Doris but the storm…

As you will have seen from last week’s Facebook post, in place of a full blog, the choice for the name of the garage will be ‘Grange’ – thank you to those who joined in the selection – all bar 1 vote was for that choice (and we are delighted as it was also our…

This week has been another productive period and, as anticipated, we have managed to start covering the roof of the garage although could only do a couple of days work on it. The week started with preparation to welcome a journalist guest and her family to Kergudon who was working for one of the agencies…

Sunday 12 February – Wood work As forecast in last week’s blog, the weather was a bit iffy at the start of the week and I had 2 more days doing my carpentry  (a.k.a woodwork!)  Much of it was preparing things that will be built later and a couple I have kept secret from David…

Sunday 29 January – Hitting the Roof Firstly, apologies for the delay in posting.  My promise to post every week unless forewarned otherwise was dependent on France Telcom ensuring we have access to the internet!  All weekend it appears that the entire village has been cut off from the outside world with no phone line…

As I stated at the end of last week’s blog, Monday turned out to be the worst weather day of the week which prevented us from making any progress on the garage.  As it was wet I wasn’t able to progress our rear wall as it would have been too muddy, but it did allow…

Sunday 15 January – Spirits of Finistere Having stated in last week’s blog that I would aim to get an average of 400 readers for each blog I was really pleased to see that my Facebook post telling people I had posted a blog was seen by 581!  Not having posted anything since the end…

Sunday 08 January – Belated Bonne Année A belated Happy New Year to everyone. I can’t believe that I haven’t posted a blog since the 27th November – many apologies.  We hope that everyone had an amazing Christmas and a fabulous New Year whatever you got up to. The reason I haven’t written a blog…
