French House Things & Fic Ramblings
It's a wet Sunday afternoon and I don't feel like going swimming, and I need to let Part 6 fester for a few hours before I do a final edit and consider whether I post now or leave it a while longer to gestate, so I thought I'd finally get round to a post I'd promised for lazykeptwoman re progress on our French house project, so house things and some fic ramblings behind a cut ................
House Things
Two years ago Mr fb and I got drunk while staying overnight with a friend in the Dordogne en route to the prehistoric caves of the Pyrenees. End result? (Apart from her hangover the following morning!) We bought a piece of land near where she lives, and the house that she has project managed for us (and done loads of work on) is nearing completion. Photos can be found on a photobucket site that Mr fb has set up. We're right in the middle of a wonderful caving area, with one of the nearest caves being Lascaux, famous for its paintings, just over the hill in nearby Montignac.

Fic Ramblings
Part 6 is nearing the 5,500 word mark and will have to stop here or I'll have posting traumas. Or rather MORE posting traumas, as something always seems to bug me every time. There's probably one part left. And I do vaguely know how it all ends up, but I suck at writing plans, so I just hope the ideas in my head reach the page OK. I've had loads of fic-angst over this one, and be warned THERE IS NO SMUT. But this damned series is just determined to go its own way and I seem to be along for the ride, so here's hoping it comes over alright and doesn't bore people silly.
Anyway, I've left it long enough now, so I'll go back and do a bit more editing.
