Nous sommes le samedi vingt sept octobre

All in a days work yesterday fighting a cough and really bad cold.
Went to have my hair cut and styled just after lunch. The hairdressor refused to let me pay and said give the money to your refugee fund. 
Then went to Verfeil where long time friend Anke had said she would help me with the kittens born in the refugee gite, saying she would take on two. We were meeting Marjolean, the Dutch lady who has an association which sterilises cats. 
We met up and went to the gite where we were met by the lovely Africans who we explained our " cat and kitten mission to"
No cats were in sight so we fed them in a certain place to attract them to that area for Monday and Besha said he would do that for the next two days.
 The couple who came with the cat expertise and will sterilise the mother cat heard us discussing bikes with the boys and offered us a bike and said they would ask friends for more. Caroline Trender now " Chief bike monitor" said " make sure I see them first to check them over" She takes it seriously (and I think the boys are all in love with her long legs and blonde hair!!)
Not only is she bike monitor but she is giving specialist treatment for sports injuries and massage and handing me the money for the boys leaving fund.
Then I dashed of in the car to St. Antonin to take Rahims wheel to Peter Quaife who had said he would try a repair.
On my return I read he can fix it.
I got back also to read an email from a friend wanting to donate a large regular monthly sum to a refugee charity which they hoped I would help them with.
NOW as I sit down exhausted, I ask myself how do I know so many WONDERFUL people?
Well because in this world there are more WONDERFUL people than anyone else.
THANK YOU EVERYONE
