These are the words I will always associate with yesterday's Art & Lard at Le Petit Pressigny...
Colin had been studying the weather maps; thus the mention of a "front". To be fair, I agreed that the weather was certainly "looking brighter" (my phrase for anything other than full sun), so off we set.
Ever the optimist... I went in a fully water proof walking jacket with a hood; Colin wore a jacket. Our saving grace was meeting Jean and Nick. They were leaving as we arrived and Jean, very kindly, offered her umbrella. Colin refused; I accepted. You may discern a pattern emerging here...?
Now far be it from me to take the moral high ground but...
L'Aigronne was rising fast...(please don't be alarmed, Gaynor and Tim!)
We were only in Le Petit Pressigny for about an hour but comparing these photos from on our way into the village....
and then the same shot as we left....
Despite this, people still braved the elements, perhaps not in their hundreds but a good showing nevertheless..
We were about to leave when we bumped into fellow bloggers, Tim and Pollygarter. They pointed out that there was an art and sculpture trail around the plan d'eau, which is where we found this lovely 'natural' piece of art work...
Just a good job it wasn't windy as well as wet! As we left they were playing "It's Raining Men"; "cats and dogs" would have been more appropriate!
