Thursdays are picnic tea days for me and Rosie. Cold and wet today but a tradition is a tradition, even if we end up in the garage!!

It's suddenly gone so damp and chilly here in the Auvergne that I've lugged the gas fire into the Writing Room. Amazingly it started on the first ask, which is a bit of a record!! How's the weather where you are?

I must say I’m very disappointed in the police over their dealing with the RAF Fairford incident. By announcing that the suspects are British nationals, they have completely undermined the stream of made up bollocks from myself and every other right wing gobshite on Twitter.

Typical!! Sure I heard a tawny owl - the females do call during the day. Fired up Merlin app. 'Oh no, there are no birds at all here and even if there were, I wouldn't tell you'. Deleted app, restarted. 'Listening for birds'. Garden goes quieter than a Trappist monastery, and still is. <sigh>

About to flop in front of something mindless - like Professor T! I'm tired out - my car's sat nav has developed a mad quirk. 'In 300 metres, turn left'. 'What, into a 2 metre deep drainage ditch??' Not sure if I need to take her to the SEAT dealer or an exorcist!!

Shortly setting off for this designated Most Beautiful Village www.issoire-tourisme.com/en/incontour... . Hopefully the GPS will cooperate as even the garage was stumped - they had a good laugh about it being possessed by demons though!

Montpeyroux, the most beautiful village in France - Auvergne Pays d'Issoire Tourist Office

The village of Montpeyroux, located 25 minutes from Clermont-Ferrand and 15 minutes from Issoire, is easily spotted from the motorway thanks to its overhanging keep.

Chilly this morning. Getting autumnal. For some reason the first hint of mist and mellow fruitfulness always triggers this earworm. www.youtube.com/watch?v=iOjx...

There have been so many impeachable offenses, but lying about how you were a hero on a day that 2,753 people died in NYC in the 9/11 disaster—when you were on the other side of town, safely calling local media to brag about how you now had the tallest downtown building—is such a despicable one

Really silly tired now. It really is remarkably difficult to sleep whilst wearing a Border Collie as a full face covering, because it claims to be afraid of a tawny owl calling!

Just been chatting to a tawny owl in the next field. It's the only bird call I can do. No idea what I'm saying to him but he's very animated!

We beat the storms and had our ritual Thursday picnic tea. Only over on Dogtonville but it was very nice and I am thrilled skinny with my little beach chair. Perfect support for my poor old back, but you do need to be fit to get up out of it!!

Those who follow me on Faceache know my neighbour and I have an ongoing saga with our maire about the state of the chemin communal opposite, which we both need to use. His latest effort was to tarmac it. This photo is of the ditch. The vague half crescent shape is the 'drainage' pipe. Is it me??
