Hello

[Jane]

Hi Jane and welcome to the forum

Hi and thanks for the welcome

You're welcome I don't live in France but it is my ambition to maybe one day, I hope you will enjoy the forum

Thanks. Do you have a second home in the area Jim, or do you holiday there a lot?

Hi Jane no I wish I did have a second home in the region, it is something I would like, but unfortunately my wife is rather ill and at the moment we are not able to travel as we would like. But I like to keep an eye on Fred and make sure he doesn't get into to much mischief  

Sorry to hear that about your wife, and wish her well. As I type this we are travelling the long journey home. This is the worst bit for us, the distance. When I get back I will be able to post a bit more. Not so easy posting on a phone, whilst being a passenger in a van. The joys of transporting furniture
