1st December

I can't believe it's the first of December!

Up for a relaxing breakfast with Pierre's mum and dad after a not-so-relaxing night with Leo and Coquine sleeping in our bedroom. Leo is such a pain in the arse - one minute he's wanting up on the bed (he's not allowed), next he's scratching at the door to get out, then he's drinking - loudly! - out of his water bowl at 3am. Argh! Plus, when the two dogs are wandering about in the middle of the night, all you can hear are their claws on the tiled floor. Needless to say, we didn't have a great night's sleep. To wake up and find Leo had pissed over the floor in a few places around the house was the icing on the cake! Don't even think he did anything with Coquine after all that!

Went for a wander down to dad's garden in the morning with dad, Pierre's mum (Annie), Sarah and Marie-Claire. We went to forage for petits bois for the fire and Annie wanted to pick some moss for her "crèche", or "nativity scene" in English. Like this.

Daniel and Annie left around 6pm and Pierre and I had a lazy evening watching Breaking Bad. This is now the third time I have seen it! I love watching it with Pierre - we're watching it in English with French subtitles - but it's maddening when the translation's wrong. Yeah, the point gets across, but some of the nuanced stuff that's said, or just the really funny comedy moments aren't always translated properly. So annoying!
