                                        As we prepared ourselves for a luncheon at Le Renard, Madame announced her intuition told her that it would snow to-day (and soon!).

We wrapped up warmly and proceeded to the car - voila! la neige, the snow started.

Driving over the hilltop to Lumieres and then on to Hameau les Dauphins, there was the literal spit and a spot. During lunch, it came down.

Here’s the latest pics - Max the German Shepherd loving it, the garden, the countryside and, lastly, our house as we approached, eager to arrive home before it was too late. We passed our builder Jose on the road- big smiles, probably he was on his way to his latest ‘conquest’ and knows that the snow will mean that he has to ’stay over’ and can’t work to-morrow.

 

The Touran is parked on a downhill slope in Jean-Pierre’s driveway, tyres turned to 90 degrees, all bolted down. We have learnt? We’ll see to-morrow!

We are bunkered down. Thanks for a great lunch Daviiiid and Robi - sorry we had to leave so quickly.
