Holidays

Hello again. There were a few of you who were wondering where I had disappeared to! We were on our holidays - down in the Corbières in the South of France, in exactly the same spot as we were 2 years ago, in the same town, the same house, the same bed even (with a new mattress - a lot firmer than the previous one!) - no link for the bed. We did not take a picture of it!

You'll see in the links above mentions of the hotel Le Relais de Montséret. Tragically, this lovely hotel is no more. There was a fire last winter, and the restaurant burned down, taking the hotel's owner, Thierry, with it - very sad. According to our landlady, the rest of the hotel was completely untouched, but Thierry's apartment was above the restaurant and it must have burned down very quickly. Apparently, the fire was triggered by an electrical fault. It is such a sad story.
