It's that time of the year again!
Although for us, it really is our first time completing our tax returns. When we lived in the UK, it was all done for us and I really didn't realise how convenient that was! It can take time to navigate the French system, but it's SO worth it!

The importance of bread in France can never be understated.
Thank you so much et .fr for not letting these wonderful pastries and breads end up in the bin!

Francais:
Du pain ...
L'importance du pain en France ne doit jamais être sous-estimée.
Merci and .fr pour nous permettre d'éviter que ces merveilles ne finissent à la poubelle!

English:
Slowly introducing curry to the family. We enjoyed onions bhajis, Kashmiri lamb, popodoms, tandoori chicken, rice and naan breads (all handmade of course 🤤). We else here is struggling to find the main ingredients to rustle up an Indian dinner? What do you miss the post foodwise when living abroad?

Français:
Festin indien pour la famille et les amis samedi soir! C'était une tuerie, même si ça nous a demandé énormément de travail de tour fabriquer à la main dû au manque d'ingrédients. Est-ce que des expats ici sont dans la même situation et ont du mal à se procurer certaines choses? Qu'est-ce ce qui vous manque le plus dans votre alimentation si vous vivez à l'étranger?

Is there anything better than a freshly made carrot cake with cream cheese icing and crushed toasted pecans 🤤? Thank you , I cannot wait to have a taste later on!

Franchement, il n'y a pas à dire: le carrot cake, c'est la vie. Surtout celui-là avec un glaçage à la vanille et au fromage frais et une petite poudre de noix de pécan 🤤 Merci pour cette recette qui déchire !

English:
Well, hello everybody! It's been such a long time since we last posted on this page. Last time, I was announcing that we were moving to France at the end of the summer 2019. So many things happened since then (that's without even mentioning the new C word), it's been a whirlwind 😚
But first things first, let me introduce you to our new house. It's situated in the lovely village of Verruyes in the Deux-Sèvres department (79). It needs complete renovation but
It has got so much character and a real soul, we just couldn't leave it! That should give us enough content to keep us going for a while 🏠🏡

Français:
Coucou tout le monde! Ça fait un moment qu'on n'a pas posté par ici. La dernière fois, j'annonçais au monde (virtuel) mon départ pour la France à la fin de l'été 2019. Tellement de choses se sont passées depuis (sans parler du Corona et des 3 confifis...), le temps passe tellement vite! 😚
Commençons par le début, laissez moi vous présenter notre nouvelle maison. Elle se situe dans un petit village qui s'appelle Verruyes, dans le département très rural des Deux-Sèvres. C'est un projet de rénovation total mais la maison a tellement de charme et de caractère et d'âme qu'on ne pouvait décidément pas l'abandonner ! A nous les posts spécial réno, les amis 🏠🏡

Less than a week to go!

‘Mo Bro’s’ Mr Long and Mr Maguire are growing moustaches for Movember and raising money for research into men’s mental and physical health. Mr Lorin has also been campaigning for this project. Mr Long spoke with the boys last week about the work of Movember and the importance of looking out for one another.

Today is my last day at Denbigh School and possibly as a teacher. The last four years have been a rollercoaster of lows and highs that can be expected in the teaching profession.

However, the group of friends that I have in the Creative Arts department have been the most supportive, funny, and kind human beings I have ever met.

I will miss seeing them everyday and the random antics that we get up to, the sudden bursting into song, and the coming together of productions and performances each year.

We hope to continue a virtual singing group in the future and I hope that you enjoy this rendition of Billy Joel's classic.

Soprano: Leah Louise
Alto: Helen Ings
Lead / Tenor 1: Simon Frost
Tenor 2 / Bass: Liam Maguire
Percussion: Dave Wilkie
