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!

It's December, so it must be time to...
..let the boys take over the calendar display area! He's going to be 12 the weekend after next, he's having a party at Laser Game, and he still wants to play with the Fair Trade Nativity Scene...
What a nice little buzz it gives me to see the Christmas tablecloth in your world, yay! I think you were one of my first friends in blogland, and I have loved reading about your daily life these last few years. Other blogs come and go but I always enjoy coming back to your warm & friendly space. Thanks Floss, thinking of you xo
