Time travel

Its funny how our behaviour has changed since we came to France. In England we lived in a large town but here we live in a small country village. Life seems a bit more personal. This morning, along with others, we attended the remembrance service at the war memorial. Why did we never think about doing this in England? But there are other changes too. Jan buys clothes from the market, she buys food from the market and has even bought cooked chickens, something she wouldn't dream of in England. We now visit different shops for our produce when in England it was one stop Sainsburys. We seem to have taken a step back in time probably in line with our new found leisure time. The pace of life used to be hectic, we both had jobs and had little time or energy for more 'mundane' activities.
