Hi from Solihull

Hi hope you are well in Cholet. The weather has been glorious here in Solihull - not a cloud in the sky over half-term which has been a welcome change. This is exactly what happened last year however - and then we had nothing but rain and more rain until the autumn. Toes crossed that it is not a repeat of last year!!!!

Just a quick note to say that we are all really looking forward to receiving our guests in May. I hope to arrange a lunchtime get-together at Solihull College again for everyone to meet up on the Friday - and all my students are really looking forward to meeting French friends - new and old!!!! Can't believe it is nearly a year since we had our marvellous trip to see you! Time flies so fast these days!

Come prepared! Bring both your suncream and your umbrellas as I cannot guarantee what sort of weather we will have in May. It is usually a very pretty month however - with all the spring flowers and blossoms in full bloom. That is if the torrential rain doesn't get to them first!

I'll sign off now and wish you all a very happy weekend

See you all soon

Love Lindsey xx
