I could not agree more Quillan.Brown who STOLE the private pensions has not said much of late has he?I wonder why?

Does anyone know if Pink Salt is available here?I want to cure some Pork to turn it into Gammon.I need kosher salt as well but I was told today that sel de Guerande is as good.

You do not have to renew.It is adjusted,ie the increase.All be it a smallish amount for us.

You lucky person.I have been looking for Ceps in my area for weeks without success.I love them.

I have taken some cuttings (fingers crossed) and placed them downstairs in the cave along with the plants in pots.It does not get too cold,but if the temp' drops they could go in the boiler room at a steady 20 deg's.

There has been a lot more flies at this time of year than usual despite the fact that we have a cow field next door.
-
Nice weather today,but a bit breezy.Going to plant some bulbs and clean the greenhouse.
-
Two and a half years on,I am still struggling with the language.I think it is an age thing.The younger people I have met seem to learn quicker.I have got to persist.Apart from that I have no regrets at all.We are both doing our best to integrate by way of Breton dancing and attending Repa's etc.

One of our Westies has very red gums and bleed when we try to clean her teeth gently.She is eating ok and no sign of being poorly.Nose is cold etc.She has a skin allergy hence special biscuit.We are going to the vet on Monday.Any thoughts?

Its ok here in central Morbihan apart from the downpour last.The ground did need the rain though.Sun is shining today.
-
Cider.Around this area I have seen men with trailers collecting apples.I have been told that a mobile press is available that squeezes the fruit to make cider.I have used 10kg to make 2 gallons of wine.Squeezed by hand though,bit messy,but the end result is supposed to be worth it.

I think it is yet another sign of the world gone mad.

What is with the FA and the wearing of a poppy.The ref has been told to stop the match if the players come onto the pitch wearing a poppy.

Turned on the tv this afternoon and caught the last 10 mins of said film with T Howard.

The gloom and doom merchants are saying the euro is going to fall.With Italy now in dire straits,what does the future hold I wonder?

We used them in July 2009.Very good.I had some furniture delivered to them as well as a flat pack kitchen.They were excellent.The owner/manager had a property in France.The company were local to me(Deal).

I agree 110% Bugsy.I have just been turned down from entering the health system because the new EU regs are are not in force yet.So it's private insurance again in January for 9 mths until I get my OAP.Deep joy.

Went to CPAM in Pontivy today with someone who can speak French.We were told i would get an email before Friday.Received it 2 hours later stating that they had not yet heard about the new ruling from the EU which means that things stay the same as was stated in 2007.Deep joy!

I have not been so lucky with squash this year.I have 2 which are a lot smaller than yours.Courgettes have been ok though.
-
Why is the former PM spoken about in such terms.To say she is "leeching" is not a nice turn of phrase.So were here policies that bad.Where I lived in the Kent near the coalfield. I saw things that opened my eyes. Is it obvious that Margaret Thatcher is to blame for the state of the UK ?.Did MRS THATCHER destroy British industry????
-
The first year we were here,2009 we had a local goose.Very nice. We will be having one again this year.The cost will be 30-40 euros which is cheaper than the supermache.

I was being sarcastic.

I am an atheist/agnostic (cannot be bothered to wiki to find out which), Di is Jewish so neither of us celebrates the Winter Solstice. As for the ridiculous present giving thing on a specific date we have more sense so don't.
