I think it’s safe to say winter has arrived at La Jonchère. The temperature has dropped and is forecast to keep diving, the gite is closed until next spring, the veg patch is under a duvet of mulch (along with an optimistic sowing of broad beans and peas for next year…) and the woodpile is high.

The webcam at Sancy is showing a promising start to the ski season with a sprinkling of snow and more on the way.
