Its nearly Christmas.....

Last weekend I completed a round trip using Easyjet from Luton airport, and whilst I still do not like the airport (and said so in a customer survey) the experience was better this time as the flight used one of the gates in the main, small, terminal building as opposed to the Easyjet shed. So it was better but still not up to the same standard as Stansted. So enough griping about airports, after all it is my choice to fly every weekend.

Its nearly Christmas so that means Christmas shopping, and preparing the car for the trip down to Sigogne from London. I went to Hamleys to do the stocking shopping for Fleur and although it was heaving with people there no queues at the tills which was very surprising, and meant I got everything I wanted and was out in less than half an hour.

I just have to go to the DIY shop for paint for room 3 which should be in a position to have some paint thrown at it over the Christmas period, and a visit to the supermarket for a top up of popadums for Fleur, nan bread, and a few Christmas things such as crackers and a Crimbo pudding…

Despite telling our web designer we cannot pay her until the end of January and then her telling us she cannot start designing the site until February (so in the end everything works out just fine), she has already started working on logos and giving us ideas for the site. Along with our speedy builders things seem to be moving forward a bit quicker than we expected on all fronts at the moment. The building work is still on target for a mid January finish, so things are looking very positive as 2007 comes to a close…

As of Friday (21st) it will be good bye London Bridge for 2 weeks and bonjour Sigogne, wonderful.. the only down side is that both Franca and I have picked up heavy colds, but hopefully after a coulple of days we will be right as rain.

So a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all our readers, and maybe we will see you at Au Bellefleur in 2008…..
