I had a day off from the horses today, hehe, well , they had a day off from me!!
I went to to Brantome with Bev to the vide grenier (empty attic), think car boot/jumble sale, where the french try to sell all their old junk for ridiculous prices.
We had a great day, ahem, buying old junk, a truly french 2 hour leisurely lunch and a good natter. The scene was perfectly French, right down to the street singer/hurdy gurdy man who was great, albeit a little freaky!
We do need the rain, it's just a shame that half the villages in France have arranged their festivals and vide greniers(empty attic - jumble sales) for this weekend!!
I spent a couple of hours in the barn with the horses and Frankie this morning. Frankie and JC are two kittens that we rescued last year. The photo below was taken when we first got them and they're grown now, but we still call them the kittens.
Frankie likes the horses, and I think they like her, she spends a lot of time with them.
I gave Anky a relaxing massage and she was very chilled out. Bonbon was asleep and I could hear her snoring gently on one side, and Remy was snuffling at his hay on the other. Frankie was curled up in the corner of the stable and I could hear her purring.
