one day in France

Getting plastered!

A few hours after I took yesterday's photo, Mr F and I were in A&E! He had put a pointy bit of wood in the corners of the wooden frames to push them down into the earth so they wouldn't move. Well that wasn't on Monty's design, but I went along with it.
Trouble was that after a month of no rain, our clay soil was like concrete, so he got out his power drill and started drilling holes. The drill hit a rock, slipped and instead of the drill bit going round Mr F's hand went round!
He has broken a metacarpal and is now in plaster, so we really do have a no-dig garden!
Today we were supposed to be going for a cycle ride along the Grand Cote, but we just joined our friends for lunch instead. The waiter wanted to be in the photo too!
