Lots of appointments, mostly medical and  dropped in to Fanny and Pete’s French house for a weekend to help them mop up after the floods there, on our way down to Provence for December.

 

December

We’d been in Provence for only a few days (via a few days in Burgundy which convinced us we didn’t want to move there – too cold!) when the hospital rang to say my blood results are finally clear of infection and Miss Higgs can put my new elbow in on the 20th, so I fly back to london on 19th, operation, kicked out on 21st and train back down to Provence on Christmas Eve. The train journey being quite a feat with a case and a heavily bandaged arm! Fanny and Pete arrive 31st to spend New Year with us.
