Well, that’s most of the summer done then. We’ve been up to our eyes in ‘things’, but we have seen some sun on our new terrace after the House Move from Hell (I think we were so traumatised I could barely bring myself to write about it) which is great. We’ve taken on some new contracts, finished some others, dealt with clients both English and French, easy and difficult, out with the old - in with the new.
It’s been our usual roller coaster of life in France, but for some reason even…

Renting a house in France. A curious affair, where every landlord wants someone to move in within a week, and yet standard notice to leave a rented property is 3 months.
Our particular rented house was in need of a DPE report (diagnostic de performance energetique), or energy efficiency rating. The landlady didn't know where to find someone to do the report so I said I would find out for her and pass on the details. "Beware of charlatans" shouted her husband from the background.Two… Continue
