That looks so much like an Italian outdoor eating space Skip! Lovely! I do hope we get the chance to eat outdoors lots this year!

It looks perfect , that's how you dream summers should be , a table laden with food children running wild without a care in the world .. it's how it should be ... !

I just thought the same as Karensusan! I was going to say that you were still in France, but had just moved on to Provence! It all looks perfectly idyllic, a beautiful house in a beautiful setting, jealous? Moi?! ;0)
Hope you're feeling better!

I missed this one! The girls are right that could be Italy or France....or 'The Darling buds of May'
Beautiful place to eat Guy

thank you everyone for the wonderful comments..and good wishes..my 'illness' was short lived..a bit of man flu and tiredness so nothing too serious and nothing a rest after this day didnt put right..but thank you..

one thing i adore is entertaining, and this place is ideal..i knew i had quite a few visitors arriving on my return from France but everything went superbly..and yes its a great place to be and eat and have fun..

It felt like Italy with the sun and food and everyone enjoyed it..if i thought anyone would come I would throw a GOY summer luncheon

Thanks again everyone for their supportive comments..

Go on, go on, GoY luncheon sounds good, am sure there are a few Goyers near you....Blog it!

11 May, 2011

 

I agree with Lulu Skips, I think you'd be surprised, that's a very generous offer!

11 May, 2011

 

Are you up for it H?
There are a few Goyers in Wales...not far away! StevieT, Kasy.....Hywel.........

11 May, 2011

 

I will do a Goy party in return!!!

11 May, 2011

 

I live about 400miles away Lulu!

11 May, 2011

 

Maybe not then Helenium!! We must look into that Goy private jet!

12 May, 2011

 

Wouldn't that be handy Lulu! Lol!

12 May, 2011

 

Won't get me in a plane, i'd rather walk! A bomb scare was the thing that eventually put me off flying!

13 May, 2011

 

Yep, that would really make you think twice next time Lulu, but it's a shame really, as it means they have won!

Your luncheon table looks so inviting with its variety of chairs and amongst your plants/gravel area. Love it :)

Pleased you are fully recovered now...hope there are lots of days of sunshine for you to share your gift of hospitality this spring/summer.

15 May, 2011

 

Yes indeed H'ni'um, sorry to lower the tone on what really is comments on lush places to eat and party..

15 May, 2011

 

I don't think you lowered the tone Lulu x

And there's me wanting a balloon ride! (just to see my garden from above!)

16 May, 2011

 

Lulu that would be fantastic, what a veiw! You'd be able to see beyond your town/city. If you can.. go for it girl!

16 May, 2011

 

You would have to travel down, come hold my hand in the balloon....and then we would go have a big slap up meal and party at Skippy's home and sleep in tents!
Actually, forget the balloon ride because I am not really brave enough (From a bungee jumping girl?!)...

16 May, 2011

 

such a beautiful place! i love it :)
i didnt realise u were in paris same time as me!
when can i come for dinner? a nice marinated chicken with a bottle of cote du rhone would go down a treat :)

20 Jun, 2011

 

Hope we all get an invite to the next gathering! lol

21 Jun, 2011

 

Now that IS a long way from Fife! I guess you'll be tenting too!

21 Jun, 2011
