Twelve years ago to this very day we attended our granddaughters first year old party and then left for the ferry to bring us to our new life in France.
How green we were, we were sure it was going to be warmer and sunnier and it had been up to our arrival. I kept reading chat rooms with people saying " still in my shorts". When we arrived it was the coldest winter in 50 years or maybe it just seemed like that. Everywhere was a winter wonderland and the place looked more like Greenland than France.
We had hired a gite for a week till we signed the final act and that gite ( never to be forgotten) was freezing. It was not set up for a winter let and we went to bed in coats and socks but surprisingly still thinking it a great adventure.
That is what it has been, a great adventure which we are so glad we embarked upon, twelve years on and no regrets.
