Let's Party!

The people from Guadeloupe arrived at the village hall for lunch having spent the previous evening staying in mobile homes at the nudist camp because they had arrived earlier than expected. Even with all their clothes on they were surprised by the difference in temperature. Proceedings were a bit difficult to start off with as we found that the list of who was staying where, which had been changed umpteen times, had to be changed again. The list we'd been given of folk who would be happy to stay together was obviouly all to pot as among other things a family of 3 were in 3 different places. In the end, we had the family to stay with us instead of 2 single men. i think we've come off very well as they a charming people who manageg to get themselves to the coach more or less on time. The atmosphere soon livened up as the musicians located their bongos in the mountain of baggage that they'd shipped over and started to drum and sing. Christian and I were on duty serving lunch after which Christian was feeling pretty stressed and tired (not helped by having scrapped our car along the side of someone else's) so he made a sharp exit and went home for a rest.
