Sunset over Le Moustier

I took this picture a couple of weeks ago when just returning home after an evening stroll, i think it was the last time that we had a nice sunset as ever since its been a bit overcast. But today has been a little better albeit much warmer and tomorrow will be even nicer....here's hoping!

A polite reminder!

I've seen this sign on the main road in to Montignac many times since we've moved here, at last i remembered to take my camera in order to show just how far the AA stretched in their help to its members and other motorists. A very wise owl indeed, it's situated near to the Intermarche supermarket, maybe people we're so relieved to get all their shopping done they were going to forget which side of the road they should be on!

I'm not quite sure how old the sign is but i'll guess at when the AA changed their logo from the classic to the very plain lettering, maybe sometime in the 70's?

New Gite Swimming Pool up and running!

For customers who visited us before June this year, we thought you'd like to see how the gite swimming pool has turned out following it's new liner fitting. It's already being used regularly by our present customers, which as the temperatures as i write are in the mid 30's, you can imagine is very refreshing when cooling off is required!

Butterfly Ball!

Another macro picture taken earlier this week, the buddleia's are now nearly in full bloom so the butterfly's are very visible now.

There has still been very little rain in the area and some of our guests who have been canoeing on the Vezere have said that during their journey they've run-aground 3 or 4 times because the water level is so low, needless to say, storms are predicted this weekend so it may be a different story soon!
