Social life

I don't write much about our social life, as the blog is more about what we get up to and it is hard to know what people will mind having written about them. In London a lot of our social contact was with people at work, although of course we met friends evenings and weekends, but as we got older that was far from every day. We were a bit worried coming here that we might go mad with only each other for company, however we have been lucky enough to meet quite a number of english (speaking) people here who are equally as mad as us and even a few French ones. Far more people just drop in to see us than ever did in London - where it probably took hours to get from where they live 2 miles away and it wasn't worth the risk we might not be in. We go out to lunch and dinner quite often - and have people round here. I bump in to someone I know (French and English) almost every time I go to the supermarket which only rarely happened in London. So thankfully, although we spend much more time together than we did when we had full time jobs, we also spend plenty of time with other people and are unlikely to go cabin fever mad.
