A Change in View

Today is the day we've all been waiting for ... the first round of the Presidential elections. Christian was on duty all day up in his wee fief and I went up for lunch. The count in the commune went for Hollande but sad to say, the FN made a showing too. Stopped off at the bar for an apéritif with the Maire, Carmen, José and Marie-Jo. Much to my satisfaction José said how much he appreciated my help in finding beds through the association to make up the shortfall for our Norman visitors. This is someone who told Maggie that he didn't have time for the English. Patience, a smile and good humour pays off in the end. Skinning cats spring to mind.
