That's done it! Pergola ordered, with delivery just before we go. Van booked, as is Eurotunnel. The other good thing is that London Wasps (English Rugby team) are playing their European quarter final match against Leinster on the Friday evening before we go, so we get to see the Rugby, as well as go to France!
Here is a marketing image of the pergola we will be taking down there, made by a chippy from Swindon.
In addition to this, we've loads of plants to take down. Our gardener has just delivered some "terre du pays
enrichie avec du compost" - see photo below - ready for the planting
As you can see, that area looks a bit scruffy, but that is part of our project: to tidy it up. The wall will be painted, and the concrete will be covered in shingle.
Oh yes, did I mention that we are going out there in March - now just over 3 weeks away for the weekend of my birthday. We can't wait to get out there again: it's been too long!
