Got in through our front door in Cravant a short while ago. Unpacked the car and now start to sort ourselves out. We have tenants in the house in BOA, all the bits and pieces we wanted with as are now finally in France. So home is officially here. Bottle of fizz in fridge for later. Another visit to the UK isn't expected until November.
Our Brittany Ferries crossing was very good. Slept like a log. Loads of people on board. We were out of the port by 7am and into yet more heavy rain, which has been non-stop until we got to Azay le Rideau. The damage to the vines has been considerable. As for us, unlike some of our neighbours with flooded basements and caves, we're ok. Even the garden seems remarkably upright, given the pounding by golf ball sized hailstones. Some friends Sue and Dave arrive today for a month. They've rented a house near to us in Cravant from some lovely friends of ours in the village, so are about a five min walk away. That will work out well for all of us. Dinner here tonight which will be lovely. No one needs drive!!! Party...............
