PARIS

We caught the TGV to paris and stayed with Kaye for 4 days. We stayed in the apartment that she has rented for her stay there;A beautiful apartment in a very nice part of paris,decorated with some magnificent antiques.We had loads of fun and were lucky enough to have our own private tour guide in Corinne;She lived in Paris for 10 years so she knows it very well.We did a lot and saw a few things that werent the usual tourist things.Lola had a blast and was on fire as ur ongoing entertainment.what an amazing city with so much history and something different to see around every corner.

Bedroom 3

just finished converting the old garage into our 3rd bedroom.i still have to finish off the outside around the windows but the inside is completely finished.We only need to find some bedside tables.After i get the outside done i may finsh the rendering( the last wall) and install the handrail to the stairs.Thats if jez stops keeping me busy in the workshop;I dont have much time here as he is keeping me very busy.

I've just had a week out of the water with windy conditions after one of the best months in recent history.I surfed about 20-22 days in april with a few days sneaking in two sessions.I needed a rest this week as my body was exhausted as all surfers here at the moment have had their fill and more!I feel super fit but i need to get back in the water this week to maintain it.Tpmorrow morning is looking good.
