It is even stevens as to what and who needs to put away.......

It is, at last, a little warmer and we have been able to walk around the field and a visit to Omaha beach gave HOSS a good run. We strolled the back of the foreshore understanding the storm damage and wondering when it will all calm down but we did come across another huge plank and now that we have given ourselves beach comber status we have no hesitation in picking up and walking off. We chatted about our caravan on the beach at Selsea and how the sea determined the shape of the coast line for low tide then moved it all around again at high tide. We often reflect on Selsea, it really was our introduction to sea air and out-all-day life style, we had some good family gatherings there and when we look back over the photos we are really pleased we took so many......Mike has got the seed sewing well on the go and I have promised that we will both go every day to watch progress. What a difficult waiting game though, I am learning that instant is not always good and that a programmed wait gives you the expected results in the end.......I can see why teaching Kids how to garden as part of the curriculum would give them proof that you have to plan and wait for the great things in life....Mim and Dick are coming to stay for a few days and we are taking the momentum of excitement to tidy up and clean up. I know I keep a farely tidy establishment here and compared to some French homes we have visited we are definitely ikea and habitat but when we look around our home it feels more like Rue Traversiaire and Avenue du Loriot, two very influential addresses in my life, Mike does not have the same emotional memories and just wishes I would not put an item on every available flat surface but when I clear up it is even stevens as to what and who needs to put away.......
