Is This July In the Lot?

You wouldn't think so. As I look out I cannot see the hills as they are shrowded in drizzle. It has been raining for the best part of the last fortnight. At first I was delighted - good for the garden and all that - but you can have too much of a good thing, especially when you have friends staying. Bob and Jenny our friends were really kind and weeded the "serpentine bed " for me between the showers. It looks really good now as John managed to cut the front grass yesterday. Infact the garden looks very "Englishey" with lots of lush growth. The courtyard grass was about six inches/15cm tall when John cut it. At this time of the year it is normally biscuit brown and not growing. Dont worry I'll be moaning about the heat next week!!




Despite the unseasonal weather we managed to entertain Bob and Jenny with visits to a beautiful garden in the Dordogne and a trip to Albi.






We were all impressed with the catherdal in Albi.

Lovely photos and it sounds as if this weather is all over France now. It's been very damp, cool and changeable in Normandy ever since we arrived in mid-June, with only a few exceptions. Sigh...
