about the village

After the first shower in the apartment when we were ankle deep in water Geoff cleaned the drains. French bathrooms don't have floor drains so any overflow goes everywhere. Next he cleaned out the dishwasher. However when we finally turned it on, it didn't work. Geoff downloaded the manual which didn't help. So this morning Geoff contacted our landlord by phone and email who he said he would text us.

no water, the spring is dry

We went and had coffee while waiting for texts about the dishwasher. The repairman has looked at it and will contact the manufacturer. Then, as our morning was rearranged went for a walk to Chapelle Saint-Ferriol, patron saint of the town, less than one kilometre away. It is on top of a small hill and we walked out of the village and up the straight, rocky path beside the Stations of the Cross, The church which has murals was shut.  It was a lovely walk through the countryside.  The repair man has turned off the power, can you turn it on in an hour and tell me what happened? No change, the same error message keeps coming up.

This afternoon was a mystery walk. Could we remember where the small Casino supermarket was? Near a school on a road away from the village. Found it. The repairman will be there at 5pm tomorrow. Is that OK?
