I'm usually holed-up, like "Startrek"s Lieutenant Uhuru at her control panel, in the big laundry room/"studio" (which, since the restoration, sits in what used to be the servant's passage between the main house and the formerly-separate kitchens).<br /><br />Glad to be a "delight", of course (particularly since I'm about to go down to the Post Office and try to pick a fight about a lost package/painting). I'll probably lose the argument....I know. <br /><br />----david terrydavid terryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18009130338123162371noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2498719763759636773.post-29147732279051908242013-03-01T09:50:34.445+01:002013-03-01T09:50:34.445+01:00Very soothing to me at day's end to see this p...Very soothing to me at day's end to see this post (and the dogs!).

Wonderful! Do you chance to know of the late Lawrence Durrell, a great novelist? He wrote five books comprising the Avignon Quintet, and lived the last 20 years of his life near Arles. (Earlier he wrote the better-known Alexandria Quartet, including Justine -- for whom I'm named...)<br /><br />Tried to post this identifying Livejournal as my origin; Blogspot couldn't do that, so I'm coming as "anonymous" -- sorry!<br /><br />Thanks again, JustineAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2498719763759636773.post-2620775405895403362013-02-28T21:30:48.681+01:002013-02-28T21:30:48.681+01:00Wowzer, love your article in D.A.'s blog.

Reading your article reminds me (hope I'm not mixing up my books), "A Year in Provence", Peter Mayle and his wife went to a party in Provence, same thing, not dressed up and the whole crowd were in their fineries... I tend to like the quote from "Hamlet", "to thine own self be true". And you were true to yourself Heather. And that, in my opinion wears better than silk, cashmere, diamonds and emerald. I have this image in my head of you as "Marlene Dietrich" with combat boots minus cigarette holder...:)<br /><br />xx AmeliaAmelianoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2498719763759636773.post-40705189016631180662013-02-28T20:16:10.022+01:002013-02-28T20:16:10.022+01:00Wooohooo!
