Mayday,Mayday.................!


Well today is a Bank Holiday here in France so another excuse for hundreds of  extra Brocantes,so of course we were up with the Lark to see what we could find.......It is also traditional to give Lilly of the Valley to loved ones and there were many bouquets for Sale.....



As for finding treasure-we've had a good day......:0)



We made many trips back to the van with our finds....and will be listing it all during the coming weeks,time permitting....

It never ceases to amaze me what people are prepared to part company with......!



beautiful Tapestry Textiles.....








Just some of the delights which will be finding their way onto our site soon. Our Mayday expedition finished locally at the Village Square where we picked up good old English Fish & Chips-(yes,right here in France!)-a reward to ourselves for all our hard work! 

Finally....This Stunning Image is by the Painter Eugene Delacroix(1798-1863) entitled La Liberte Guidant le Peuple-Liberty guiding the People, painted in 1830.....it caught my eye whilst trawling the Internet for something completely different-oh how I would love to find such Artwork on our travels! One can only dream I suppose..... Au Revoir!
