Mondays party

It being Monday, the night market was the days' highlight; since there had been a brief but welcome storm beforehand, the field under the trees where revelry normally takes place was deemed too muddy for the event. Alors; the car park was promptly pressed into service. It was fine but obviously not as nice as usual - also a little bit crowded, all pretense at social distancing abandoned.

My photos are terrible, even by my standards. This is a direct result of drinking chilled rose as if it were water. Note to self; drink large glass of water with each glass of wine next time.

The other highlight yesterday was  lunch with Kelly, whom we have not seen since the beginning of the lockdown. She is gloriously well!

Slightly disturbed this morning by news from my neighbour,  (=here on holiday from the Cote d'Azure). He said that in the early hours, 2.30, his dog started barking and he saw a flashlight moving down the impasse, held by someone trying the doors and windows.  Since there are a lot of strangers in town, it behoves us all to remember to close things up at night. 

Hoping for another storm here. Too hot!
