Back to Normality

We arrived back home from our trip to England yesterday, Monday. We think that everyone thought that Rene's Life Celebration went well and was a fitting way to remember her. After we had sorted out a few 'legals' with solicitor and Bank, we all went to see friends in Manchester. Luckily, we left just as the weather developed into a storm, and it had died down by the next morning for our ferry crossing; only some 'ship movement'!
We then stayed a couple of days with our French neighbours at their Paris house. They have family on the outskirts of Paris and so spend the winter there. They were most insistent that we stopped off with them on our way back.
So, we are finally back home and we hope that we can now devote all of our energies to working on the house and starting on the garden. Just one hiccup! SNOW. It started to snow at about 10 this morning and it has continued all day. The forecast for the rest of the week is dry but temperatures of -1 to 3. But, c'est la vie!
