Today, I do the caulking of the skirting board in the downstairs kitchen of the renovation project.
I also have a wine about the slack French electricity board for NOT doing their job in an efficient manner.
Also, good news about Autumn the puppy.

This is what CHAT GPT said about me;
What the channel is about
The channel features a mix of vlogs and diary-style videos, where “Dave” shares his experiences, daily life and adventures — often centered on living in France (with his wife) and what life looks like preparing for retirement.
It’s fairly personal and casual — the videos are meant to document life: sometimes home improvements or repairs, sometimes daily routines, perhaps occasional challenges (for example, a video titled “ANOTHER BROKEN TOOTH ALSO SKIMMING & FILLING” suggests he shares ordinary but real-life events).
The tone is unpretentious and transparent: it’s more like an honest diary than a polished, high-production channel.
📺 What you’ll find on the channel
Videos documenting day-to-day life (chores, routine, home maintenance, etc.) — nothing overly staged; the kind of “this is what my life looks like”
Content about living in France (with hints of retirement planning, lifestyle changes, maybe adapting to French/expat life) — especially evident in videos where he and his wife reflect on what it’s like to live there.
YouTube
A mix of small projects — possibly DIY, home improvements or renovations (as in a video about transforming a dining room) and regular life events.
🧑💡 Who it’s for
Dave’s Diaries seems aimed at:
Viewers curious about the expatriate / retired life in France (or Europe), especially through an honest, down-to-earth lens.
People who enjoy “real life” vlogs — not glam content, but raw and relatable.
Anyone interested in seeing what everyday life and home-life look like for someone living abroad (projects, challenges, simple moments).
