Here's today's video from the 16th century Chateau de Lalande in the heart of France, where life is going on in spite of the French lockdown ???? I finally open all of the exciting parcels that had arrived from all over the world whilst I'd been away. And I'm so, so happy that I wasn't able to open them earlier, because they've brought extraordinary joy to my quarantine. My bedroom is becoming a mini chateau within the chateau! Thank you all!!!!
