A normal day in the life of us

On a school day, we’re up by 7.30 am, have brekkie, go to school at 8.45 am for a 9am start. Kids have school for 3 hours. We walk across the road to get the kids home for lunch at 12 noon. The kids have a 2 hour lunch break then it’s back to school for the afternoon till 5 pm.

On the days when the kids are at school Andrew and I have been busy driving in to Carcassonne (car with a scone) to get things sorted out like phones, internet, car.

On Wednesday’s there’s no school, so we pick a place, pack a picnic lunch and go off on a day trip somewhere. Weekends we also take off on drives around the countryside. Our next trip is Toulouse. We’ll drive over Saturday morning, stay in hotel Saturday night then come back Sunday afternoon.

The church clock tolls 7 minutes before every hour and then every hour, all day and allnight. After a while you don’t notice it any more.
