Traffic has been steadily increasing for a few weeks but the real sign that summer is here is that the Supermarket next to our home is now open every day including Monday for the summer season, and “Wonder Woman”, our new name for Virginie due to the fact that she can lift the most heavy gas containers, is hard at work.
Virginie (Wonder Woman) looking good
People make time to stop and chat in the Sunday market.
This glorious display was for Mothers Day which fell on May 28th in France.
If you visit Daglan make a point of wondering the side streets where you will find some of the hidden gems. This picture was taken at the end of the lane at the side of our home.
A stunning array of roses in full bloom cascade down the side of this property.
Trying to hide from view. This is gorgeous Meemow, so named because she talks to you none stop.

Our French Dream 
Virginie is a darling, it’s always a pleasure to see her lovely smile and hear her welcoming “bonjour” when we visit 8 a Huit. Daglan village is looking “blooming” beautiful at the moment. It certainly deserves it’s “Villages Fleuris” status.
Hello! I love reading your blog posts. My husband and I are coming to the Dordogne this month and we’ll be sure to visit Daglan just because of your posts. I’ll do some sketching in the village. Thanks so much!
Thank you so much and do knock at our door for a coffee when you visit Daglan
