How are all those brave people who are trying to change their lives by renovating these beautiful chateaus managing these last few months. They are working so very hard.
I should imagine they are getting by like everyone else, some very brave people are risking their lives daily - some of us are only slightly inconvenienced.
I could never understand the French mentality.I plumbed in a friend's farmhouse in Brittany about 30 years ago.It needed a septic tank etc. The house was built of granite and built to last. We converted the attic/hayloft into several rooms. He bought the property for a song . It was one of many such properties in the area and all owned by Brits who renovated them. I often wondered why the French, themselves ,were happy to see this beautiful buildings fall into disrepair. :-(
