Diane,
thanks so much for that...cheered me up and helped take my mind off some hassle(storm damage to roof, and emotional storm damage from family)
Ah, wine tasting lessons with Amelie.....what a wonderful dream.......

What happened to your roof, Claire? I hope nothing that can't be fixed by a glass of good wine :)

horizontal guttering loose and flapping about after a big storm overnight on Tuesday, and since we are a top flat(apartment) the local council insisted it be done asap which meant loads of phone calls and arranging things in a hurry(neither of which I'm good at).....but fingers crossed it is ok now: only problem is, we had to pay the entire cost initially,and now have to try to recoup the share from each neighbour in the other six flats....oh the joys of a shared building.... :(

oh, and in the attempts by the men to see if they could lean out of my bedroom window to fix the guttering(they couldn't - and ended up having to go and hire scaffolding)my venetian blind was cowped(trans.: knocked)off the fittings and is broken beyond repair, and I am now blindless and curtainless.....no energy left to try to sort that out so it will be done when it gets done......sheesh.....

That all sounds terrible.
