Not an easy adjustment home!

Since we got back from San Miguel on Friday night, things haven't gone exactly smoothly. You could even say it was a little frustrating!

For example:

• the phone didn't work
• the internet didn't work
• the tv didn't work
• John's car didn't work
• the gate didn't work
• and a family of mice had moved in.

By this afternoon 4/6 of these are now sorted so I guess we are making progress!

The good news was that Harold is fine and happy and the photo above isn't him looking frustrated and petulant!!!!

Yesterday I was back singing at the cathedral again - so that was nice. And today I spent most of the day in my studio catching up on some orders that had come in while I was away.  I got quite a few mailed out so that was good.

So I guess we'll be all sorted again soon!

A sight to behold to welcome us home

We arrived back in England - to warm weather and a wonderful greeting from a covey of quails.  Yes, Quentin and his buddies were in the back garden. There were more than 20 of them running around, looking for food....or maybe they were checking on us???

 

And along with Quentin, it seemed the vineyard was welcoming us back with it's lovely show of autumn colors.  Different grape varietals go different colors in autumn, so it's a lovely time to drive around and try to guess which grape is producing the red leaves or the yellow or the.....

Here's our Merlot:

It's good to be home.
