The Bergerac Troc
One of our favourite things to do when visiting Bergerac is to pop into the ‘Troc’ and explore the vast rooms that contain all sorts of old brown furniture and articles from traditional French houses when a clearance has been necessary. We have found some wonderful items to use in our French home and really enjoy painting them using chalk paint to enhance their decorative features.

We have been enjoying a mild winter with beautiful days. Needless to say the spring bulbs are pushing up and we have the delight of looking at our first flower by the antique cross. This is always the leader as it is warm and sheltered by the wall.

We woke to a beautiful crisp frost. The land was covered in a blanket of white and the silence was complete. Not a thing stirred. It really was magnificent and perfect for a walk across the land. As the day warmed up so life stirred once more and we enjoyed a day outdoors.

This is a lovely time of year with glorious moonlit nights that emphasise the peacefulness of the countryside. It is also a time of renewal and activity as we prepare for our first guests and look forward to the tourist season.
