Busy yesterday getting the house ready for this weekend's visitors which in the heat was no fun. What am I talking about? Housework is never fun, whatever the climatic conditions. The aquagym was a welcome relief even if there was no escape from the dreaded chips and a meeting of the exec of the new assocition/club a bit fraught with undercurrents. Today has contined with more cleaning, preparing food for the weekend and baking cakes for this evening. Michel asked the association and friends in the British community if we'd bake cakes to be served at the latest vernissage/exhibition opening by way of a change. A British couple also came along to play some jazz so it was something a bit different as were the paintings!
After that it was hot foot down to the recreation ground for a meal of paella and a disco in aid of the tennis club. The meal was good but unfortunately there weren't as many people there as hoped for. Everyone is talking about the drop in the number of tourists and how people are starting to feel the pinch. There were 14 of us altogether (Mairie folk) including Pierre, Marie Christine and their daughter, Laurène. By midnight we decided to head for the sanctuary of the bar where Jean Louis had a very quiet evening.
