Saving Lives

The Président of the Department honoured the commune with his presence all morning. He inaugurated a defibrillater in each of the villages and made some very long speeches which weren't just about heart attacks. Well, there are regional elections coming up soon. A photo opportunity, a quick glass of orange juice and hand shaking at every turn before he was whisked off to the next meeting. As calm returned we able to enjoy our apéritif in the knowledge that if a heart attack strikes, there's a machine on hand to keep you going until help arrives.
