Maximum temperature 14C, minimum 5C. 22mm rain in the rain gauge while away. 44 km/S wind. Light shower as I type this.
Clouds seen driving home with my pet hate of wind turbines.
We are both very tired and I still feel pretty rough so off to bed now and will catch up when I feel better and the laptop and WIFI is working.
Diane: Along trip from England and the flu are enough to make you sleep for a week! Lousy way to start "2016"! Happy New-Year anyway to you and Nigel! May this year bring you happiness, good health and all of your heart's desires! Maguy
ReplyDeletePS: I've used your meringue's recipe today! They came out beautifully! Making some "torche aux marrons" (chestnuts tartelettes) for tomorrow's dinner!) M.
Thanks Maguy and wishing you a very happy 2016 as well. Glad the meringues worked for you :-) The torche aux marrons sound good, I love chestnuts. Keep well Diane
DeleteHappy New Year!!
ReplyDeleteI hope you are feeling better real soon.
Thanks and a Happy New Year to you as well. Not feeling very bright today but I will survive! Diane
DeleteBonne année x
ReplyDeleteBonne année to you as well Gaynor, I hope 2016 will be a good year for you all Diane x
DeleteHappy New Year Diane and to Nigel too. Computer problems are very irritating so I hope that you get to the bottom of it.
ReplyDeleteThanks Craig and a Happy new year to you as well. Our computer problem is on going I am afraid with a very slow connection, yesterday every man and his dog was using a computer I think which brought the speed down to less than dial up!! Today we are a speedy 0.48Mbps download speed and 0.08 upload - after having fibre optics in the UK we feel it!! Keep well Diane
DeleteIt's not cheap but this satellite service may be of interest to you...http://www.tooway.fr/
DeleteI have tried this in the past Craig but did just try it again, sadly the answer has not changed - 'Offers for individuals are not available at this time for your area'.
DeleteI wonder why it would be geographically restricted in the Charente? Perhaps ask this chap why if you have interest.

No idea, we have looked at several means but none of them will work for us to one reason or an other. When I am feeling better will look at the above. Thanks.
