The long view

Busy day. Market this morning, with - despite the terrible weather - enormous queues for everything. Very notable that the market soaked up over an hour, yet the supplemental supermarket shop took 10 minutes. Still, the market is more fun.

TallGirl spent the afternoon at a friend's working on a very important school project. And definitely not just playing with said friend's new kitten...

Meanwhile CarbBoy and I foraged five sacks of compost from the tip, and then set off on the long drive to Carcassonne to collect MrB. The Google Lady (Amélia, to us) led our old broken car a merry dance up the steepest hills and through the narrowest medieval streets in the south-west. However, we did get to see this fabulous view in Saissac, though I fear the iPhone snap has not done it justice. Incidentally, the house just a few metres below where I'm standing is for sale... With all that view....

Home a slightly more relaxing route, then a mixed grill (otherwise known as 'not enough chops for everyone, so bung some sausages on as well'), and now Batman with cheese.
