Quiet weekend

Had an uneventful, quiet weekend - I visited St Girons market to stock up on fruit and veg and did a supermarket shop and that was about the sum total of Saturday's excitement. Woo-hoo!

Sunday, all change on the weather front, as it clouded over and a sudden, vicious wind came up the valley out of nowhere, rattling the shutters and threatening to rip the tarpaulins from over the woodpiles. 5 minutes after the biggest gust had passed through, the siren went off down in Massat and my first thought was that a tree had come down on top of somebody's house :-( It is rare to experience wind of such intensity in these parts, thank goodness.
