18/03/2016 Been working in the garden all day as the weather was perfect so lack of photos!

Maximum temperature 16C, minimum 1C. 20 km/h NE wind.  1 mm rain
 overnight.
Celandine and mini beetles.

Celandine minus beetles!

Hazel tree bud with ant at the tip!

Fly on the Viburnum tinus.

Rhubarb split and moved to the four markers.
On the dark patch behind is planted carrots and parsnips.
The weeds beyond have gone since I took the photo!

Bet it is the same one as yesterday as it was close to the same spot.

As above.

More photos of Angouleme market...
No market would survive here without a boulangerie...

or cheeses...

Liked the look of this canard (duck) pie...

La Poissonnerie...

and if you feel like a break you can stop and have an Italian coffee.

    1. If you live in France you have to be prepared for anything at the market! Luckily they do not go as far as domestic home animals, other than horse meat!! Frog legs and snails are a delicacy as is sadly thrushes! Yes we will have someone in 3 x a week to water when we are away. Have a good week Diane
