Les Deportés

The ceremony season is well underway with today's commemoration of those people who were deported under fascism. The weather was wet and cold but there were a number of us who turned out. don't supposrt that Christian and i would have been there if he wasn't at the Mairie but there you are, that's life. A 9 o'clock start up in the mountains and the back down to hear the speeches again in the village and of course an apéritif. six of us (Maggie, Francis, Monique and Alain) then went off to the local auberge for lunch followed by coffe and liquers back at our place. The rain didn't let up all day so it was good to have something other to do than watch the telly.
