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.

all change

A sudden change in the weather today to cold, wet and windy.

After a light night/early morning following 4 hours of dancing last night a day pottering about indoors, doing a bit of sewing is not unwelcome. Even better is knowing  the garden is being watered for me and the water butts, which were all bone dry, are filling nicely.

Just hope the sun returns tomorrow as we have friends coming over for a barbecue - we have warned them that being English it can happen in the rain!










We have at least got a nice new tablecloth and seat cushions for the summer kitchen after my work today
