It's gonna be hot, hot, hot

After such a soggy Spring, Summer's come as something of a shock. It's 8.30 in the morning and the thermometer in the shadiest, coolest part of the garden says 24 degrees. Elsewhere it's 30 already and rising. Once more the refrain of 'Ices, fresh ices' this afternoon as I trip my way up to the pool with a handful of cornets and a tub of home-made ice-cream for our lovely guests. They're not yet down to breakfast, but my guess is that they'll go off to the wonderful market in Pezenas then come back for an afternoon by the pool before heading out somewhere gorgeous like Le Presbytere in Vailhan for supper. Not a bad way to pass a day.

Here are a few photos taken early this morning.

Dear Lizzie your diary is wonderful - it is raining in Perth and I'm still at the office (how dull!!) so I thought I'd check the diary to see how things are in lovely Roujan. Your photos are gorgeous - you can feel the heat in them! Roujan sounds hot and fabulous and your place looks sensational. Oh my god I would die for home made peach ice cream!

Your lucky guests!
