First post for the blog following it’s long lay off is to inform you about the Super Concours de Belote at Brossac salle de fete for the Foot on Samedi 10th November

Yan who has come all way from Hong Kong and spent 6 weeks at La Giraudiere. During her stay she has prepared some great cuisine for the group, used her talents on the hedges at La Giraudiere but painted a map of Brossac take a look;;;,Wow this has been worth waiting for what a great piece of work

This morning, Paul and James have been busy working on the downstairs of gîte 4, getting the wall ready to be chaux-ed tomorrow, while Mark has been on gîte 4 balcony filling in the joints there. Yan has almost completed her map and it looks so great, and Emily’s been in the old house sorting out Paul’s office.

This evening we had a new arrival from the States, Darrell, who will be staying at La Giraudière for four weeks, welcome Darrell! It was Emily’s turn to cook tonight and she made another traditional English dish – cottage pie! Niko came to dine with us too before we all headed down Brossac lake to watch the free gig Lyre le Temps, which is a swing électro band. They really got the crowd going as they were full of energy – a great end to the Brossac lake concerts for this year!
