As we’d been invited to the Christmas aperitif for the employees of the “Communauté des Communes” which was just opposite where Philippe’s Mum lives, it was the ideal opportunity to have a cuppa with her. There were chocolates on offer too and despite my disapproving looks she encouraged Christian to help himself, which of course he did. We weren’t able to linger long at the first aperitif as there was the same thing in the village for the council workers here. Not only do all their children get a present from Santa but so do they, the retired employees and the councilors too.We finished the evening off chez Laurent and Samara with wine and fois gras. How many more days do we have to keep this up for, I ask myself?
