We moved to the Deux-Sèvres Department in Western France in 2003.

I worked as a Campsite courier at various Campsites, before I was employed on a full time basis as a gardener & angling coach. I officially retired from the gardening a couple of years ago, due to ill health & now work on a self employed basis; predominantly in the summer months, coaching & animations for the campsite at La Garangeoire, St Julien des Landes, Vendée
