Le Ferme des Tourterelles, d'Eclance

Sarah & James were our hosts.  And you will be surprised, they are English!  We were very glad that after almost a week had gone, we could finally communicate and understand completely!  They are just a lovely couple.  We talked about everything and anything.  Drank 2 bottles of champagne before dinner, and by the way, Sarah is indeed an excellent cook.  1 bottle of white and at least 3-4 bottles of red.  Alan was too drunk and tired he had to excuse himself early.  The rest of us talked until almost 11:30pm.  And the house, yes we had a 2-storey house for ourselves, is absolutely beautiful.  I would say it's even to the luxury standard.  Look at the pictures!  And you would not believe that all these houses and swimming pool are built by James & Sarah themselves!  Has taken them 5 years now and the work hasn't finished yet.  So maybe in a couple of years when we come back, the complex will look even more pretty!  And I have to thank Sarah again - we had not prepared very well and nevertheless still wanted to do one more champagne tour.  Sarah took it up and must had been calling more than a dozen champagne makers to help making a reservation for us.  Thanks Sarah again!  And also, James & Sarah have a lovely old cat, Tiger, who is now 20 year-old!  Amazing
