A lost blog in France

You would not believe how many hours we have spent trying to get back on our blog! Hours and hours of bad language and threatening to throw the laptop out of the window and it turns out it was our own fault.Somehow we had 2 accounts and too many passwords!? Don`t ask we don`t know how.Well today thanks to a lovely friend (thank you,thank you) it is now sorted and I can continue
with my ramblings.

Living in the beautiful Normandy country side in France is really a lovely place to live,but is it ever going to stop raining!Think we are going to need a boat soon am beginning to understand how Noah felt.Anyway in between the rain we have managed to get out to a couple of Bootsales,Flea markets whatever you like to call them and have found some wonderful goodies.

One of my best finds was this wonderful emerald green long sleeve dress.Its in perfect condition,dont think its a 1940`s dress but has some age to it.Was made in Paris and the best thing about it is the Eiffle Tower buttons.Can`t let my daughter see it as she is obsessed with anything Eiffel Tower (or the Eiffel Trifle as she calls it) she would want to cut them off!I will be selling it- go to www.ww2rationstore.com for more details.Hopefully going on a hunt again tomorrow,weather permitting.Will report how it goes when we dry out.



Just need to mention what arrived in the post today before I go. It seems my other half has found goodies of his own.An original wartime British marching compass in a belt pouch dated 1942.Again in really good condition he is going to sell it -go to www.ww2rationstore.com but in the meantime he can use it to find his way back from the local bar!
