All Walled In

I've finally managed to finish the current phase of wall building! The courtyard is now fully defined and ready to be levelled.

There is/was a large pile of earth and stones which I dug out for the 'foundations' of the low wall, and I've been sorting out the stones to throw behind the walls and the earth to put on the 'raised' bed in the back garden.

I seem to be always moving rocks from one place to another!

Despite all these reports of our work, we have been socialising quite a lot. Yesterday (Sunday) afternoon there were open gardens in Cahors and we visited the garden of the lady President of the garden club which organised the plant exchange last weekend. It was a small garden in the middle of Cahors and Madam President was, as now seems normal to us, extremely pleasant and welcoming. Whilst we were there we joined the club and we are looking forward to participating in events and outings.
