Henri in town this weekend – his fee for surfing the couch was to pose a little.

I mentioned that Henri had been crashing for a couple of weeks but haven’t posted any shots of him – despite us being in each other’s pockets for pretty much the whole time – so here you go. It’s his last night before he flies off to Bali for a couple of weeks, as you do. Grr. Marie H in town (as well as François) so the crew met up at Le Comptoir for drinks and food. Back home, we played the bean game (initiated F who is also crashing) and apparently I really do take these things too seriously (in my defence, they were obviously ganging up against me!)

Headed to the wedding villa for brunch and coffee… especially the coffee! Weather being a bit shit but hit the beach all the same and splashed around in the waves to revive the brain and body. A few hungover shots today.

Wedding day… Mairie de Calvi – I was a proud witness, which, honour aside, meant I had a seat and could rest my heel-toting-feet. Drinks at Notre Dâme de la Serra, bright sunshine, champagne, pretty people… and then on to the villa, looking out on the mountains and valley below. Small storm drama – the electricity went out briefly, the dinner tent dripped, pool side cocktail was moved inside but the atmosphere didn’t suffer and the weather cleared up for dinner and a long night of dancing (swapped the heels for havaians asap!). Too many shots to edit ruthlessly and it’s my blog so I’ll post lots if I want to!

Some of the cool kids went diving today – Angie, Noemi & Marie H for the first time… I was grossly jealous since I can’t dive until I sort out my sinus issues (according to the dive dudes, I should stop smoking for starters…hmmm). Took a few shots of the prep and then went for a wander through Calvi with Eliot – we ended up on a small rock overlooking the exact dive spot they were at so we had a distant overview of proceedings while we blabbed. We’re getting old – lots of babies nowadays, camomile tea is a must after dinner, and most shockingly, we seem to all be in bed by midnight and up and about by 9. Bizarre…

So Corsica it is… arrived in Calvi under a blazing sun. Henri picked us up and we headed to our home for the next week which is a symbol of how posh we’ve become… flat screens in every room, cleaning service every morning, croissants delivered to our doorstep, swimming pool, outdoor bbq… not too shabby. Lay around the pool for a bit, catching up with some of my favorite people, watched some tennis… general chill. Petanque and Pastis in the evening if just to highlight that this is indeed the South (expect a few photos a day…lovely light here)

Fruit and veg shopping at the Gare du Midi market on a beautifully sunny day – nice way to start a Sunday. Bumped into Henri and Adele as well as my old flatmate, Tom, who I hadn’t seen in a couple of years (that will change!). Henri came by briefly this evening to justify this posting which was actually shot in December, but only edited today.
