I have just returned from a visit to see how my French farm is getting on and I am thrilled with the results so far. The exterior is almost done and the interior walls have been removed to make way for the new bathroom and bedroom. I met the neighbours - they held a tea party for me, and they all said how much better it looks than before. Here is a picture:

Wow, Jenny! It is lovely!


I bet you are really excited to move and get in there now!


That is wonderful that the neighbours held a tea party for you! It's great to know you'll have friendly neighbours!

Wow, it's really coming along!

Didn't there used to be a fountain in front? I seem to remember seeing one in the last pictures - but it's really looking good! I wouldn't mind moving there myself

Thanks. Here is a 'before' picture of the barn part. The fountain is still there, I just took the picture a bit closer up.
