After two days of cleaning the house, the members of the twinning committee from Normandy arrived but sadly one of our two lodgers had to go straight to bed as she wasn't well. She was insistant that she was best left alone which when I knew that she was a nurse, I felt I could do with a clear conscience. It was an informal evening and people started to make links with their counterparts. Christian and I had a bit of a head start on the rest as we'd already met the mayor when we delivered the cherries in May. We all ate the first of our six meals together and although there was a caterer it was up to us to serve and clear up. Can't even say "there's no such thing as free lunch" as we paid for all our meals except the one offered by the Normans, ourselves.
