Part 1. (Hopefully there will be no Part 2)
The English due date has now passed and the French one (babies take one week longer to cook in France) is this weekend, but still we wait. Since we live in the middle of the field there is not much to divert us.
Star Academy - the French version of the X-Factor is fast becoming our favourite TV show, and last night we watched a rerun of Cool Runnings a programme about the Jamaican Olympic Bobsleigh team. As I said things are getting desperate..…
Here’s a sample of a serious conversation from today:
“What shall we do now?”
“We could go and get the duvet cover dry cleaned.”
So it seemed that all our Christmases had come at once when on one of our rare forays from the house we met Jesus, Spiderman and a 1920s gendarme (see pictures). Forget Cool Runnings I was tempted to invite them all round for a dinner party and then a game of charades…anything to help fill another baby less evening. The only problem was they ran away.
Spidy and co were actually part of the field of the Luberon Marathon and after all the excitement of the race it was back to the usual routine. Tomorrow we’re picking up the duvet cover, and if we are feeling adventurous we might go to the boulangerie. Any other suggestions to keep us amused are welcome….but to save you the trouble, as I write Tanya is downstairs cooking a curry and then we’re having an early night.

Good thinking Tanya and Jamie - the curry should do it! Worked a treat for me. I've just finished reading your two books consecutively - thanks for many hours of pleasure; well done you!
If Tanya should start doing some serious housework-clearning out closets and the like-you will be just hours away from the baby's arrival. Good luck to you two!
well what do you know ! Try climbing a mountain and maybe castor oil is Doctor Tim's secret remedy .
