Mary and Davids visit.


Mary and David, friends and neighbours from Dalwood, East Devon (where we used to live) came for a weekend at the end of September. David is now retired but they still have a busy life-style running a B and B as well as successfully breeding and showing a small flock of Jacob sheep. Mary had been to France many years ago but it was a first time for David. David is very interested in wine so they visited the Loire and Bordeaux areas on the way down. They arrived on the Saturday afternoon and we had a pleasant evening sitting over a meal and catching up on all their news. On the Sunday morning we went down to a boot sale in Eugenie-les-Bains and then went down to a small farmers market in Pimbo and had lunch there. The afternoon was spent relaxing and chatting in the garden. They left on Monday morning after an all too brief visit.
