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.

completion day


Its finished - my first full size quilt to be completely quilted and finished off ( my first top is still waiting to be quilted). Feeling very pleased with my efforts.

































Its always very satisfying to finish a project - this has been a while coming. I started piecing in April 2014. The quilting was always going to be the big test as this was the new skill for me. My first quilt top is still unfinished because I have kept putting off quilting it - no excuse now, must get on with it .
