When I started I thought of it as my ramblings and discounted any interest. However, I have been taken to task and so I am resuming my thoughts just incase anyone is remotely interested!
I am just back from visiting my family in London and although it pains me to say as a committed train traveller, Ryanair to Beziers is very convenient, ok my son lives 20 minutes from Luton! but the flight times are very civilized. Mind you one has to put up with a lot of discomfort, but it is very fast.
On Tuesday evening I knew we were in for a huge storm. (courtesy of BBC Countrywatch’s weather forecast!) I have never experienced a whole night of thunder and lightning, (still going at 06.30) it was so wild and a little frightening at times. I am sure the water table has been replenished many times and the vignerons will refer to this rainfall by date when speaking about their vintage.
It has cleared the air beautifully and whilst the temperature is climbing higher each day the view is clear. I went up onto the Causses this evening, and you can see ‘forever’! The floor is covered in yellow Helichrysum contrasting with the blue Eryngium. Quite stunning.
