Hello!
Wonderful storms this week to give the garden a good soaking, but the temperatures are creeping up again. Night markets are in full swing, this Friday it's Flaujagues, and Saturday, Chateau Font Vidal with live music from Big Ed and the Red Balls - guaranteed to get you dancing.

Hello!
Have you seen the latest exhibition at the Submarine Base in Bordeaux. A great place to go when it gets too hot outside.There's free parking too.
Quick tip... don't arrive needing to use the bathroom because the toilets are right at the back of the exhibit, and you can't get there quickly in the dark!
The Feast of the Assumption of Mary (L'Assomption de Marie) celebrates the Catholic belief that the Virgin Mary's spirit and body was assumed to heaven.
It's jam and chutney making season, so you'll be needing a funnel. But they're not just for jams. they work brilliantly for decanting produce such as rice, pasta, beans, lentils....
