Finally did yoga again, then after lunch went out with Colin to the bar.  The local cycling club was leaving on a ride from the square across the road and Colin was there to see them off.

Later in the afternoon we went for a drive to Fontenille to see some friends of Colin’s, Tony and Joyce, who also happen to be Neil’s ex-in-laws.  Tony had framed a couple of posters for Colin, and has a wonderful workshop where he does paintings and other artwork.

Their house and yard have been completely re-done (by Neil) and it’s a very beautiful and inviting place.  I especially liked the corner water feature and hanging flower baskets. We ended up visiting for a couple of hours – they seem like very nice folks.

Thursday I actually went for a bike ride!  It was really nice to be out again, and I covered about 18 km – not much, but fresh air and exercise just the same.

I rode as far as the village of Mouton, and then down a couple of side roads to see where they went.

Stopped at the bar for a quick glass of wine, then dropped my camera back at the house and rode to the store to get fixings for BBQ burgers for dinner.  

A little later Colin and I went down to the bar – the very nice lady that owns it always gives me the kissy kissy cheeks now, and Mo loves her because she always gets treats from her.

There’s a yard on the walk home that has a curious collection of bird ornaments that are very cute.

Burgers were delicious – Neil manned the BBQ while I did the fried onions and mushrooms.
