That’s how our alleyway looks like this morning.

Building works in the garden
When we moved house, our landlord promised he would have a small wall built in front of the house, to put a limit between the garden and the street. A few months later, someone turned up, started digging a foundation, left a mess and never came back. We didn’t hear anything about it
until a couple of months ago when our landlord turned up with a builder.
Today, as I was coming back from the market, I found two men working with a mini-digger, digging a foundation for a wall.
Games festival in the park
We went to the park today for a games afternoon, organised by the town. there were lot of different stands with both modern and traditional games suitable to everyone. We had a lot of fun and the kids didn’t want to leave.

A weekend in Gex
We used to live in Ferney-Voltaire, just over the border between Switzerland and France, behind Geneva airport. I made the most of being in Geneva to visit some friends who live in Gex, not far from there. It was good to catch up. On Sunday we attended the Lausanne Reformed Baptist Church where I saw a few familiar faces. We were invited out for lunch and had a lovely time in the Swiss countryside.
I travelled back home on Monday and arrived in the evening to find that Jean-Baptist has his left arm plastered after a bad fall.
An evening at the football: En avant Guingamp against Le Mans
A few weeks ago, Jean-Baptiste and myself were given tickets for tonight’s match against Le Mans. It was good. Guingamp played well, but we lost count of the missed opportunities. The last few minutes of extra times were especially exciting, but they missed each time. Final result was Guingamp 1-1 Le Mans.
