Firstly I would like to wish all visitors and fellow bloggers a happy and creative New Year.
Fleur and Tigger have no idea of what the New Year is going to bring and I would guess they don't really care. Life is good for them.
After last years disappointment when the sale of our farm fell through it now looks as if we have genuine buyers. We signed the Compromis de Vente [provisional contract] last Saturday morning and we are due to sign the Acte de Vente on the 28th February. That gives us 6 weeks to pack up everything and move to our house in the Aude region of France. OH BLOODY HELL !!!!!!!
Never mind it won't give me too much time to worry about it all. The OH has gone off this morning with the first trailer load of garden equipment plus a car load of spare duvets, curtains towels etc, and so it begins. So much to do and so little time to do it all.
In between I shall try and keep up my blog and my wip as we have started a new race this year and I am determined to finish the first draft [ this year atleast].
We are looking forward to starting a new chapter but it is going to be quite a wrench to leave some very good friends behind, and we have been very happy in this house for the past 17 years but all things move on and now it is time for us to move on.
Look out for progress reports and signs of impending madness as the time flies by.

Good luck with the move. Be good to yourself - it's easy to orget when everything else takes over - maybe it could be your writing time that is the ME time you will need but what ever take care.
