Hi, last week I only worked 4 days so did 24 hours. On the weds night did the nocturnes for the 2nd time. (Was Berthe the servant again). Parents are coming out to visit for a week on saturday, today is my 3rd day off in a row!!!!

Did a fair bit of office work last week, including reading a chapter of a history book on the life of Eugene Le Roy and his time at Chateau de Hautefort and attempting to write a summary (in French of course) to add to the information we have on the chateau.

on saturday, Marie-Pierre, Claire and I went to the markets at Sarlat in the morning, before having a nice lunch there, visiting the chateau and gardens of Losse and finishing up at the Grottes de Lascaux - a v nice day out all in all! Yesterday and today has been tipping it down! Tonight, Im going for a meal with some of the girls from work at PMU, the only bar in Hautefort, before going to the theatre in the grounds of the chateau. Although given the weather Im sure itll be moved to one of the function rooms on the ground floor.......

4 weeks today Ill be home! 28 little days......oh how time drags here.......
