Shoes in the mist


 The little Thursday market this morning has this impressive shoe van which along with the cobblers van and the clothes seller makes us self sufficient :) - The butchers and greengrocers also present, as usual. We thrive and blossom in Esperaza.

Yesterday Kate and Paul let me hitch a lift with them to the prefecture in Carcassonne, to up-date our cartes des sejours. They zipped through and I got stuck in a queue - the sweetheart's waited patiently for me. Milles mercis!  All well though and the permissions to live and work here will be in the post in about three weeks.

Bruno (ex-La Caderonne, which he reminds me was 18 years ago oh la) is currently driving Bob to get his. Timing impeccable. After Saturday non of us can travel further than 10 kilometres from home.

And today is called poisson d'avril. It's the day when people try and afix a fish to your back. Stay safe out there!!!
