I hope you have had a great few days with family and friends over the Christmas holiday period and that you’ve over indulged in all the right ways. I’m just happy to have some time with my boys when I can get them away from […]

Waiting For The Finale Of Succession, Season 2 : Addictive Viewing
I’ll make this short and sweet. Have you been watching HBO’s Succession? I’ve fallen head over heels for this awful dysfunctional media family modelled on the Murdochs, Redstones and probably a little of the Trumps. It’s a show that’s hard to describe but it’s a […]
October and November Favourites and Musings
Sometimes I feel like time is whirling by so quickly that I just can’t get a grip and in my lower moments often need to remind myself that today is the best I’m ever going to be. I’ve had the occasional sleepless night reading about […]
August and September Favourites : The Long Hot Summer
Hello people. Did you all have a great August and September? I hope it was a delectable summer if you’re in the Northern Hemisphere and a not too shocking winter for those in the Southern. Holidays and summer are the perfect combination for me and […]
June / July Favourites : Summer Is Here
Summer is with us in a huge way. Temperatures are blazing and all the tourists are in town. There are near daily trips to the beach in the late afternoon when I can just about handle the lashings of sun. Unfortunately there have been some […]
April Favourites : A Mixed Bag
To be honest I was a little preoccupied with the French elections in April and engaged in much reading and TV viewing to better understand the system. Relief was palpable as Macron saw off Le Pen in the second round, although he has a hard road ahead. In […]
Twin Peaks 2.0 : The Return
One of my first posts on this blog concerned the Twin Peaks comeback that unfortunately was not to be. Now I am raising a glass in celebration as a new series has come to fruition and is finally here. This show was one of the […]
March Favourites : Spring Has Finally Sprung
Ups and downs ran amok in March but overall it was a good month, primarily due to the buzz of fragrant Esxence and the arrival of spring with its abundance of colour, flowers and warmer temperatures. This is a great time of the year to go […]
January Favourites : Who hates January?
January is my least favourite month of the year (when living in the Northern Hemisphere) and I tend to feel a little on the low side. My tiny town in France turns into a shell of itself as many of the cafes and businesses shut down to […]
July Favourites : Summer Is Here
Summer is racing by and I’m dying to enjoy every moment before it passes through and is gone in a puff of smoke. The town I live in is now absolutely heaving with people and even though I love the added energy the traffic is […]
June Favourites : The Winner Was A Quick Trip To London
It’s getting hot in here. Summer has arrived that’s for sure. My town overflows with people and life becomes more colourful and upbeat. A lot of the locals leave for the mountains in summer to avoid the heat, crowds and traffic jams but I like the extra […]
May Favourites : It’s Heating Up
One thing about posting favourites for the month is that it illustrates just how quickly the year is whizzing by. May has seen the tourists start to arrive in Sainte Maxime and it’s definitely heating up but still fairly mild. That’s a good thing. If […]
