..and Ré-lax

Brocante and vide grenier at la Flotte today, Sunday. We decide on pulet roti and pomme risolees, from La Flotte market, for lunch. Its  not too far and both sets of legs are complaining about the weeks riding. La flotte is busy; which is how I remember it. Cycles chained up in every nook and cranny. We had a good mouch round made our purchases and decided to chill back at the house. On the way back L, as it was quiet, grasped the cycling around roundabouts nettle and for the first time this week; didn't get off her bike and walk across each junction.... After a partially cloudy morning this afternoon has been V hot in our little courtyard at the back of the house. Tomorrow men are coming to fit what we think is an electric awning. There is one in place already but it has never worked. Didier sent a text Friday to get our permission. We are going to make ourselves scarse by cycling to Ars. I don't believe I have mentioned hollyhocks. After salt, huitre and donkeys in trousers hollyhocks are right up there... If you don't have a couple standing outside your maison then there's obviously something wrong with you...! and you're likely to be run off the island in a cart being pulled by trouserless donkeys whilst being thrashed with lupins!
