Catering tonight for Annie, Peter and Alison and pizza is on the menu so put a mix in the bread machine before we left the gite destined for the grange. Another day of fettling walls. Having got the framework for the roof in place the walls need building up to meet it before we can cap the top with reinforced concrete. Peter and Alison walked their dog up to see us midmorning so we took a tea break and caught up with them. Breezy has just about lost the plot with walls and rocks. I think another day and we will have it cracked.

An amazing day with a warm wind (which may mean it’s gonna rain tomorrow) and blue blue sky. The leaves are changing daily and the colours are fabulous.

 

On the way back we saw Olivier, the donkey man, who was very chatty and is now living in a yurt just down the valley from the grange. We declined an offer of a drink and said “next time”. Just as well we did because the pizza dough failed. Emergency calls to the UK to anyone with a bread machine to get a recipe. Second batch is going now so time to get cleaned up. Ekke just popped round to invite us to a music night near St Girons this evening. Unfortunately we have already made other plans. Amazingly social life in Salau seems to be really busy.
