On duty as baby-sitters this morning so we took the bors to the market and had hot chocolate and a game of dominoes in the local bar. You can just about see the owner sitting at her desk collecting in her money like someone out of Dickens. The chocolate is expensive but it's worth for the experience. On the way out we fell prey to Madame who was selling a book that she had written about the place and the famous people who have eaten and drunk there.
All this made us a bit late for lunch with Jeanine who fed us our first roast beef meal of the week. In the evening we thought we'd been invited to Sylvie and Christophe's (more cousins) only to find that Sylvie who was in Paris, thought we were coming in December! A bit of a relief really as another big meal would have finished us off.
