Abondance de biens

This morning I asked my laptop computer to tell count the number of JPG image files it could find on my hard disks. Here's the number it came up with: 724,956. That's almost three-quarters of a million JPGs. So why am I finding it so hard to find one or two to post this morning?

In French, people say: Abondance de biens ne nuit pas. That means something like "you can't have too much of a good thing." Or: "An abundance of good things can do you no harm." Think of French biens meaning "possessions" but also "goods" as in "baked goods."

Here's one photo I can post today. Since I posted pictures of our loft space yesterday, here's a photo of the two staircases we have to climb to get up there from ground level. Hope the photo doesn't make you dizzy.
