Why did we set up a website on France ?


Can I read your thoughts…why did you set up a website on Pays-de-la-Loire in France ?

As I had said in my previous blog, Iain was up a high ladder at the beams, when I heard a loud crash and I turned round to see him on his back on the tiled floor. He was lucky he didn’t kill himself falling from that height. Anyhow, fate has it on this one, his time is not up. He suffered much bruising together with broken ribs on his back. So rest obviously was in order, with all the work hanging over us at that specific time, we knew rest would not come easy…. and knowing I could not continue without him – we chose to do some computer work.

Although one reason was to take our minds of the situation, and give us something beneficial to do, as we had been used to working every day, we also felt that many people must arrive in France and go through what we went through and we thought we could make it easier for people if they had the correct information. We found a lot of sites but unfortunately, they were not always correct, and in fact giving us incorrect information made it harder for us when we got here, so we thought we would deal with actual facts and spent several months researching the information. Then we set up the site, and we have been researching and adding to it ever since. Our latest addition is naming and giving a description on every make of French cheese.

My next blog is getting to the point where we cannot continue with the house……
