More changes...

Changes over the last couple of weeks.....
                                   the plum trees peaked the weekend after the last post, and beautiful they were too...

The trees are now in leaf, with only the odd bit of blossom in places.

     Our pond is filling up, and not just with water.....

 

                                              we already have at least one resident!!

Nicole and I went to visit our next residents today....they started hatching at the weekend, a few more still to go.

 

 

Over the last week, we have seen swallows and heard a cuckoo, as well as an enormous frog chorus every night. The weather is changeable, cool and wet one day, and gloriously hot and sunny the next. The grass is growing at an amazing rate and the gite is coming on too. The bedrooms are plaster-boarded and the plasterer was here today starting the 'finishing'. More pictures to follow.
One more picture to finish, a view of the chateau through the wisteria growing on the balcony.

Just a quick one!

Just thought I would do a quick blog to show how the plum trees are positively leaping into full bloom.

You can see the trees in the background, this was taken on Sunday

Tuesday (yesterday)

Today (Wednesday)

It's amazing to see the difference every day!
The wisteria which was in tight bud at the weekend, is showing colour today..

 

The pond is filling up, I'm hoping to see frogs in here one day soon.

Jeremy, the electrician was back today, putting the wiring into the gite. No builders today as Rus's brand new baby daughter arrived this morning. Congratulations!

 

All change again!
