Up bright and early to make a couple of cakes for the neighbourhood get-together this afternoon. Weather fine but windy. Then, up to the war memorial for another wreath laying, this time for the war dead in Indochina followed by an apéritif or as they call it on occasions such as these, "un vin d'honneur".The square with out cars, about 60 people young and old who came bearing food and drink to share, what a pleasure!The kids loved the balloons which Joëlle, Jany and I blew up and tucked into the cakes while the older folk were more interested in the rosé and the sangria. Finally wound things up about 7.30pm, ie, after 4 hours on our feet.
