October’s Last Photo
Posted on November 1, 2022
Autumn is now well advanced, but this borage has appeared only recently.

Stacked chairs
Posted on September 17, 2022
The centre of social life in our nearest village is the salle polyvalente – in effect, the local village hall. It hosts all kinds of meeting and functions and its furniture – including these remarkably uncomfortable chairs – are stacked neatly in another building, just behind the salle itself.
