Hello!
What a week of cold weather, 20cm of snow in our garden and it’s still not melting.
Here’s a cautionary photo showing the perils of driving too quickly on the road by our house! Fortunately driver and passenger got out safely, though the water was rather chilly!
If you are on the lookout for fire wood Château Hate-Nauve at Saint-Laurent-des-Combes is offering the opportunity for you to gather your own sarments and visit their chai next weekend. For more details see below.
Take care when you’re out and about and wrap up warm.
Best wishes,
Helen

However as Peppy slowly rises through the industry, the introduction of talking-pictures turns Valentin's world upside-down.
