The story continues.
Lavinia’s letter to Gil.
Gil,
I am on holiday in Wales, visiting my
husband’s family, I thought I had better let you know as I am staying a month
and will not get any of the postcards you may send until I get home in 4 weeks
time.
I
hope I am right that you would be back in Dijon for your Art Sale.
I
can not give you my address here as my husbands family would not understand or
approve.
I
will miss your postcards while I am away!
Lavinia
P.S.
ALL of those chocolates from Belgium were delicious!
PP.S
I did try to draw the house I am staying at. As you can see artist I am
not! Hence the photograph!

Gil
was sitting having breakfast outside the café in Dijon when the owner brought
him the letter, he knew as soon as he saw that familiar handwriting that it was
from Lavinia!
Unfolding
the contents of the envelope he smiled. Lavinia had included a small charcoal
sketch which he knew she had drawn after reading the P.S. Why did he always
read the P.S. first? He did not know!
He
read the rest of the letter with a bit of a heavy heart, he hoped she was not
having a hard time with her in laws.
If you want to see more postcards pop over to Darcy's blog!
Thank you to everyone for visiting!

Oh, I wouldn't mind staying in such a cottage for a month... It looks so lovely and peaceful! ♥
Cool that you can sketch! I could draw the frame, then that's it,lol!
I think Gil is rather lovely.

Methinks Gil is smitten! Lovely sketch and the house looks ideal for a months holiday even if it is with the in-laws!
