Winter work - underway

Our work programme for the winter is well underway.  John, Francisco and Giles have been organising updates for the season that begins on the 19th April.  We know it will be here before we know it.  In fact as I write, on Thursday the 19th February, I realise its two months today.....

The Air Conditioning is being replaced in the cabins and there will be new carpets throughout.  Bathrooms are also benefitting from their annual updating and of course everything will be painted.  All very exciting.

Out in the Burgundy countryside it is still beautiful in the winter, with frequent frosts and pale skies.  There is just a hint of Spring in the air however. What a lovely thought!
