Aici sèn pla

This blog started as a daily record to mark our fifth year at Segala. Daily it did not turn out to be but after the year I have decided to continue as an occasional diary - after all I do still like it here or "aici sen pla".


Its our fifth year living at Segala. I have decided to try to mark this year with a daily post ( some days it will be just a photo) of our life over the year. I have trawled my brain for witty titles without success then I remembered the slogan on the T shirts at the fête in Espinas in the summer.


A friend translated it from the occitan for us. It seems to mean something along the lines of I like it here. Very apt for us, "I like it here " is a refrain we use to each other at least daily so that's the plan - Aici sén pla - a year of daily musings from a contented retired expat who thinks herself damned lucky every single day.

never have liked being a groupie!





I have never enjoyed being "wife of the musician" at a function and usually stay at home. It is always boring just sitting at the side while the talented perform - though this was a difficult gig for them too - appalling acoustics and sound system not up to the job - for once I was glad not to be one of them.








Trevor was accompanying our good friends Edwige and Alain who had been asked to entertain during the annual new year meal for the "elderly" ( ie over 60's) of their commune of Moliere.




Thankfully the majority of the diners had the good manners to be well older than us !
