18th February 2026..... Chaffinch, Garden Wall, Morning mist.

We are feeding the birds on the windowsill as it's so windy....
Chaffinch, blue and great tits and maybe a nuthatch.

Bérengère built a bit more wall.... Dave hired a truck and made 3 trips to the quarry (gravel & sand mix) and one trip to Point P for more blocks. He did carefully move some of the gravel off the truck. 😱


Mist in the valley is always so Tolkienesque!

15th February 2026.....More Trees down.


Dave took a walk up the mountain from us, and soon encountered more chaos.



This is the reason we had no water for 24 hours.

Link below is an ariel view of L'espinouse, which is the closest to us, just above us.

14th February 2026...more disasters 😱

This is a pole carrying the fibre optic....
Dave's walk around the 2 villages...
All the cut trees are just on the first bend down, and these were the trees that effectively cut us all off!
















Some from Cailho le bas.




14th February 2026...A trip along the valley of destruction!


If you spot anything upright....
Sorry, some were taken from a fast moving car...😱
