Many phonecalls from
Over the winter there had been a great deal of
reconstruction going on in the centre of Guémené (seen here from the attic
window).
An excellent new fountain of fine granite now graced the
lower part of the place Bisson.
The flags were out
on either side of the war memorial, Bastille day was not far off, and red and
pink geraniums were flowering profusely in baskets and pots everywhere.
With the striped canvas awning extended, the character of
the shop suddenly took a turn for the better.
At the back, the iron railings were being installed on
the terrace, just in time before several days of rain set in.
The long-awaited machine to cut out the driveway finally
arrived…………………
and the excess dirt was used to level out the back
garden. Now for some serious
planting………….
Luckily Emily had arrived to do just that!
and to see
Guémené’s annual festival Andouille
which is held in August.
