The weather wasn’t playing nice today – really heavy rain! This meant no one was keen to do anything. I however had classes at the Primary school and conversation practice later in the afternoon. I ended up going to Ghislaines apartment – first floor on the Grand Rue! What a magnificent place to sit and people watch –parfait! Ghislaine helped with interpreting my letter about the medicals and other information for the Carte de séjour – it wasn’t easy –she even had to ring and ask questions 3 times! However it now seems that maybe we don’t need the medical since we had one in NZ – this may be one person’s view and I am slightly scared not to do it in case someone further along in the bureaucratic chain changes their mind! Before we got the definite answer (we got told to ring back after she checked with her colleagues) which we rang back within 10 minutes but the office had closed for the weekend!
Home for our last supper with ‘the guests’ before they depart on the night train to Venice – wish I was going! It was all jokes however as our forecast was for snow – minimum -2 to a high of 1 degree! Their cruise was to have strong winds and 8m swell! Not sure what I prefer.
However, it was great having company and it really meant a lot to us to see some friends. Some sort of ‘normality’ I suppose. I just hope all of you are buying Lotto tickets and if you win, a trip to see us is first on your list! Let us know when you will be arriving…..
