The sun was shining brightly first thing this morning but then promptly disappeared after breakfast allowing some big dark clouds to roll in. Could it really rain on a Thursday when in fact all the French weather forecasters were saying it would rain only on the Saturday? Whoops wrong yet again, so by about mid morning it started to rain quite hard and lay the dust on the road and brighten up the flowers and grass etc. It did not last long, perhaps for a couple of hours.
Jennifer did some washing and Noel sorted out photos and files on the computer until about lunchtime when the rain had pretty much gone. We spent the rest of the day reading and relaxing and listening to I'Pods etc and very pleasant indeed. We were about to go to the swimming pool when the noisy lot from further up decided to go and so we changed our minds. Talk about grown up kids! Ever since I made my comments to them on Wednesday night to 'put a sock in it' they have been making loud snide comments about me. They even turned up their music loud so they all could make a loud Scchhh noise. This lot is about mid forties but act like ten year olds with screeching wives who would be best suited to the beaches of Benidorm or similar. A nice jail with stocks would be even better still.
By late afternoon the weather had improved and the sun was shining again but the temperature was down by about 8 degrees centigrade on yesterday which made it more comfortable. After dinner, as usual, we went up to the patio bar to do emails and blogs etc and then had a drink in the bar for a while. Again, a most enjoyable day and evening.
