History - 3

8 April 2011

Happy Birthday Claire. 
At last managed to get hold of Orange / France Telecom on the phone to arrange delivery of the phone broadband/TV kit. Apparently they already delivered it to the Intermarché in Pons. Intermarché returned it to them so they're now going to try to deliver it to our house next week.

Now into April and our next trip is getting near. We spent the weekend in Dorset visiting Rhys' mother and staying again at Kimmeridge Farmhouse - always a great pleasure. One of life's funny coincidences - we noticed that their paintwork is the same pale green colour that we are considering for our shutters in France. We're busy booking appointments for people to go and see (including the bank in Saintes) and people to come to see us (including a French architect).

Now that it's getting near we've set up this new website / blog and new email addresses. We've arranged for France Telecom to provide us with a phone service when we go out next time and we hope to have the last of our odd stored items sent out before we get there.

February 2011

We had another trip out over the half term holiday. Took lots of stuff out, got some builders and electricians to look at various aspects of work we need done, and ordered a tractor-lawnmower for delivery at Easter.
