Rajasthan in Technicolour

Our trip to the Far East has been a feast of food, colour and music, and our last leg an inspiration for Les Soeurs Anglaises in more ways than one.

A lick of paint on l'Espace......

A little light entertainment perhaps?

Some colourful herbs to add to our cooking?

A change of music style on the last night?

A few hand spun yarns for the textile workshops?

Freestyle dancing to live music on a warm evening?

And finally, the journey home?

VIde Grenier!

Some you you may recognise this village brocante. Held on the first Sunday of every month, last weekend's was one of the best so far.

After a slow start (I was there at 8.30am to beat the crowds), the sun came out as did the stall holder late-comers, and suddenly there was a plethora of books and toys and vintage linen,

though you did sometimes need to root around a fair bit of rubbish to get to the good stuff

Still, there were bargains to be had by those whose French was sufficiently proficient to haggle.
A lick of paint, a spot of polish or even a good wash was all many things needed to start a new lease of life in a new home.

Back at at the ranch rehearsals were going on for a evening of jamming at l'Espace where the accoustics are proving to be even better than anticipated.
