About Me

My photo
the occasional pat
Cote D'Or, Burgundy, France
My name is Patricia but everyone calls me Pat. I am a daughter, wife, mother and grandmother but I am also just me. Born to a Belgian mum and an English Dad I have lived in Belgium, England and Africa. I have now been living in rural France since 2007 and love it even though I miss those I love. Please feel free to comment, it can be very quiet in rural France!
