I'm a happily married mum of two boys, aged 17 and 19, and as a family we moved to France eleven years ago. My husband works for a French company, I teach English to French people aged 6 - 60, and English reading and writing to the English-speaking children of the area. We are part of an English speaking church in Lyon. I love to shop for French vintage lace, fabric and household items, and to combine them with my British and global treasures in interesting ways.
Thanks for coming over to my British-meets-French Vintage blog! Please leave a comment - I love to hear from anyone who takes the time to read my posts, and I try to pop back and visit your blogs whenever I can.

Reality Check
I am not a perfect mother or housewife. There is dog hair under the sofa and the boys eat with their elbows on the table, however much they're nagged. I just assume you'd rather see the pretty stuff!

Off on our travels...
We're heading back from Edinburgh today to spend another night with Ben's parents (where I snapped this lovely lace mat!). The lambs are still coming...
And the boys are looking forward to seeing the sheepdog again!
Looks like you're having a lovely time. Edinburgh, what a great city. I was last there on a school trip when i was 10 and loved it! Have a safe trip home. Cathy
So lovely to see the lambs. I can remember trying to pick them up if they were bleating when I was a small child thinking they had lost their mothers. Have a lovely time in Somerset.
We saw some little lambs on our Saturday walk...they had little jackets on to protect them from the cold.Then I felt really guilty.... because we had roast lamb for our lunch at the pub on Sunday! Scotland is on our list of places to visit...the East coast looks so beautiful.
Oh, those animal pictures are truly beautiful. The little lambs are so cute! I think I've never seen such little lambs before. And the doggy is very sweet.

Have a safe trip home. It sounds like you have had a wonderful time but somehow it is always so nice to come home.
That is a smart looking dog. But aren't all sheepdogs :)

How lovely to be around when the lambs are being born - real sign spring is hiding just round the corner.
