Happy geese |
We have lots of these this year. Libelulle. |
I have a green frog living in my water reserve |
These flowers seeds were kindly given me by my friend. |
An old chip pan basket coming in handy. |
My big chestnut pot hanging off the guttering. I bumped my head on it recently; Not recommended. I was weeding beneath it. |
I went to Vielles Fete. Vielles is I think french for Hurdy Gurdy. I wasn't sure what I was going to really. The fete was just for Vielles. There were concerts, a parade, I missed the parade. I quite like the old folksy music they are involved in but just the instrument alone is an acquired taste. Above is another sculpture by Peter Meyers of hurdy gurdy players in Anost. George with his fine sensitivities was particularly bemused by the event I dragged him along without really explaining across the mountain road. He did sort of appreciate it as an adventure and I bought him a little Barquet of chips with mustard and tomato sauce to help his appreciation go a little further. He said any other musical instrument might have been splendid. Still, Anost is very wonderful the village where the fete was held. It has a big campsite a few restaurants a lovely old Tabac and the setting is to die for in the middle of the forest. Great if you want to go trekking and hardly a soul about if you leave the campsite. Have a little listen Here |
George said these instruments, being hand crafted, were about 2000 euros each. |
Lovely vintage car |
Anost |
Handmade hurdy gurdy key rings |
A lovely dart shaped moth with red underwings. |
My friend has the same taste as I do. |
