Well our equivalent here in Daglan.
We have heard that some authorities and schools in England have banned the wearing of shorts in hot weather and that school boys have taken to wearing skirts in protest, good for them, you have our support boys.
While the temperature today has dropped down to the high twenties this team are painting the balustrade of Pont Neuf over the River Céou and I’m very glad to say no such restrictions are being enforced in our village.
Shorts or trousers?
I was going to take a close up picture of the trumpet flowers but the house is so gorgeous that I just had it take a picture of the whole building.
One of my favourite petite homes in Daglan village.
Several artisans are to be found in the village. Love the hand made hats and birds on sticks.
One of the three lovely restaurants in the village, the Petite Paris.
Daglan art exhibition looks brilliant with paintings, sculptures etc. Unfortunately we were not allowed to take pictures inside the salle des fêtes but we did take pictures of the beautiful display of stained glass work at the Presbytery.
Ready to sell their fruit, vegetables, cheeses, bread and cakes.
A walnut grinder demonstration.
Fantastic display of mushrooms.
We always make a point of wondering the maze of side streets of Sarlat to find hidden gems. This gem of a courtyard was found down Rue Alberic Cahuet. I love the old stones which they used for planters and the olive tree centrepiece.
Second hidden gem, flower pots shaped to sit perfectly onto the iron rail. what a brilliant idea.
So proud seeing the new 
Paul just ‘hanging around’, his joke not mine! Fitting our new hanging baskets at the front of our home.
Daglan has a new seat, the old wooden bench in the Place de la Liberté has been replace with a very comfortable metal bench with a lovely design but the seat does get hot in the current heat wave of over 35C
Not new but still gorgeous, What can be more refreshing than the river Céou sparkling in the sun.
Just taking a few minutes to relax and meditate
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.
The one above runs from La Roque Gageac to just before Castelnaud. If you recall the movie “Chocolate” with Juliette Binoche and Johnny Depp, you will remember the barges.
3 Picnic itself consisted of a poached salmon pizza and gorgeous petit gateau we bought from 
4 The friendlessness of the wildlife. He came to stand right next to me. You can just see the end of our picnic table at the bottom of the picture.
5 A relaxing canoe ride on the river. Paul was trying his best to convince me that we should hire a canoe, I am still thinking about it.
6 The best is the last. To come home to be greeted by a surprise, M. Guichard, the baker from the Boulangerie next door who has cleaned the pavement and the road in front of his shop and our house while we were absent. A very big thank you.
It looks gorgeous even now.
The array and variety of fresh produce is outstanding.
Every basket you could possibly want is on display
Does anyone remember these dress makers models? My mother used to have one like the model to the back, right. Very awkward to use, she had to take it apart and rebuild every time she needed another size. With my help due to the fact that it was always very difficult to attach the pins.
Our purchases from the Brocante. Blue and gold leaf coffee cup
Plus a red and gold leaf tea cup and saucer
This particular lamp is to be seen just at the entrance to the car park.
It looks like it has been cut in half to make it fit into the space available.
Chocolate gems of chickens, fish, ducks and eggs to be found in the various Chocolatiers in Sarlat.
Wow, just look at the owl.
This was taken inside Pâtisserie Massoulier, rows and rows of treats for Easter.
Paul says that I am like a homing pigeon for linen, lace and chocolate.
An organ grinder who looked like he had just stepped out of a Dickens novel, he had a great singing voice too.
Resulting in a very interesting Medieval and Renaissance centre with attractive boulevards and streets which line the area around the Cathédrale Saint Front.
