Hi Jane, the brocantes were lovely, lots of nice interesting things but also some real not worth showing stuff!! The horse was beautiful and the table setting at Patrick and Stuart's was so lovely, nothing too extravagant, neat and tidy. So lovely to sit with your friends and family. Those garden ornaments were so grand, but it is a gift and they must be used and appreciated. Much more attractive than even those tiny terracotta pots. Some people are so blessed with wonderful talents. This was a lovely video enjoyed it so much, not off to eat something quick, it is a free for all evening, each must prepare their own little something. It is a chilly Friday evening, and I think the weather will be challenging again this weekend, but not as bad the last . Should bake something tomorrow. Have a great evening and a good weekend. Have much catching up to do on your previous videos. Kind regards, Elize.

I don't think there are many in the 41 -50 playlist, perhaps you can just skip through those bits. but there is also a lot about the works going on. There is a playlist featuring mostly DIY stuff. The vlogs are a chronological diary of our life in France, work we do, people we meet, places we go, local events etc .I do hope you can enjoy most of our content, thanks for watching x
