• 20.03 Day 185 . . . More Turbines!!

    20 Mac 2023, Perancis ⋅ ☁️ 10 °C

    Up late again and the sun was shining so we sat outside on the patio to make the most of this break in the weather. Then inside to do admin yet again - it never seems to stop.
    Amongst other things we emailed and spoke to Holly at Britline re transfer of funds from UK to France for our deposit and also emailed the Notaire re payment of deposits and fees. Getting close now or so it feels.
    At 1pm we drove the back roads to Melle to go shopping at SuperU. Ever since we have been here we have put up with lots of white deposits in our kettle as a result of the water supply and so finally we bought water filter to stop white crap. Shop done in a very relaxed and chilled manner we left the store only to be stopped in the main road from shop by the Gendarmes for a convoy exceptionale - turbines again. These things are massive and appear to be on the move being built daily, not sure how many more France could possibly want.
    We then took lots of back roads back to ours, through routes not used before and somehow completely overshot Chaignepain.
    Back home and again sat outside in the fast vanishing sunshine - mini doughnuts from our shop were also tucked into.
    We then started a spreadsheet of all our accounts for our French accountant so that he can submit a paper tax return at end of May to get us into the French system - meanwhile Tre had a long call to Did’s which was brill.
    Lasagne for dinner and then we had an early night - Tre to read my book as she had now finished hers and for me to research some build projects.
    We have so many plans for our new life out here, quite how much if it we will achieve we will see. Can never do enough research on YouTube . . . Tonight was chicken coops!!
