First Posting

Welcome to my blog on every day life in a small French village in the Pas De Calais. My village that has about 66 residents and is in an area know as the Seven Valleys. My house is a pretty fin de siecle cottage at the far end of the village and I live here with my partner Anthony and our two dogs, Banjo and Ruby, we have lived here since February 2008 and are gently bringing the house up to date. Anthony works for an airline as a member of cabin crew and is abroad a fair bit as a consequence, I am a home maker and look after our two dogs. There are no diversions in the village, only the church, which is used about three times a year, and a telephone box, but the villagers are very friendly and the comité de feté, a committee that organizes village activities, is quite active, there are about five village get togethers a year in different forms. Life can be a little dull round here; why bother writing about it? I have recently become re-acquainted with my mum, whom I have never met, and this is a chance for her to read what happens in my every day life, and for Anthony to check in and see what i have not been doing. hope you enjoy
