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.

don't worry about the weather forecast

Today was forecast to be cloudy and showery at best - wet and  stormy at worst - in fact we had a day of morning fog lifting to reveal clear blue skies and hot hot hot - had a lovely walk followed by a barbecue and late evening sitting outside .

This walk around Najac does remain a classic -- and today we improved it with a final stretch along the ridge of the village


























We came in tonight as the wind changed - a stormy feeling - some lightning flashes and a few drops of rain - perfect timing!
