Back in France and signing in again.....

Well it's been almost two months since my last post, and we've covered quite a few miles in that time! We left a very sunny and snow-less Courchevel in the middle of April, with still a week to go before the lifts closed (but not a lot of snow to ski on!). From there we drove our very packed (and unsold!) Espace down to Sigale where we spent a lovely week before flying back to London for Easter weekend, which we spent in Kew. The highlight of the last two months was our 10-night holiday in Sharm-El-Sheikh, which we spent scuba diving, lounging by the pool, snorkelling, with the odd Sakara beer and game of cards thrown into the mix - fantastic!


I barely had time to unpack my bag before I was flying up to Scotland for a quick trip, where I enjoyed spending a few days with mum, dad and Bailey, with an even quicker trip to Aberdeen thrown in (sorry Jen/Di there just wasn't time.....). Back to London for an evening with Paul and Julia, a day shopping for a wedding outfit (my worst nightmare), then on our last day Edie's 2nd birthday BBQ, which was a lovely day. We had so much luggage to bring back to France, with a full set of duvet covers for the villa, lamps from Egypt and all sorts - Easyjet wanted to charge us £70 for excess luggage, so we ended up wearing three jumpers each and our hand luggage was bursting at the seams with frozen sausage and bacon - lets just say the airport experience was not a relaxing one!!

We then arrived at the villa to a very dry overgrown garden, and a green, algae and leaf-filled pool, so have had a busy week sorting it out for our first guests. But happy to be here, the sun is shining, villa guests happy, and we've found a great new local beach bar - summer has arrived!
