When I was at Liz and Terry&#8217;s the other day, Terry mentioned that he had a scaffolding to take down on Sunday morning and no-one to help him. Right at that moment, Liz was poised over me with a plate of vegetable curry in one hand and a slice of ginger cake in the other, and so my spirit consequently wavered, and here I was at 09:15 heading across the countryside to Rosemary&#8217;s.<\/p>\n<p>At that time of the morning, with the rain that we had had throughout the night, there was a gorgeous mist rising serpent-like from the Gorge de la Sioule and I would have taken an photograph or two of it in order to regale you all, but that was when I discovered that I had forgotten my camera.<\/p>\n<p>After a coffee (thank you, Rosemary), we attacked the scaffolding and we soon had it down and in Terry&#8217;s trailer.

And then I had C\u00e9cile on the &#8216;phone for over two hours. It seems like she has forgotten something important at her house, and would I mind &#8230;<\/p>\n<div class='watch-action'><div class='watch-position align-left'><div class='action-like'><a class='lbg-style1 like-2480 jlk' href='javascript:void(0)' data-task='like' data-post_id='2480' data-nonce='3b1606a1c4' rel='nofollow'><img class='wti-pixel' src='https:\/\/lesguis.com\/wp\/wp-content\/plugins\/wti-like-post\/images\/pixel.gif' title='Like' \/><span class='lc-2480 lc'>0<\/span><\/a><\/div><div class='action-unlike'><a class='unlbg-style1 unlike-2480 jlk' href='javascript:void(0)' data-task='unlike' data-post_id='2480' data-nonce='3b1606a1c4' rel='nofollow'><img class='wti-pixel' src='https:\/\/lesguis.com\/wp\/wp-content\/plugins\/wti-like-post\/images\/pixel.gif' title='Unlike' \/><span class='unlc-2480 unlc'>-5<\/span><\/a><\/div> <\/div> <div class='status-2480 status align-left'><\/div><\/div><div class='wti-clear'><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8230;to set an alarm clock for 08:00 and ON A SUNDAY MORNING too?
